If you have an hour or so to spare, this is a very interesting video. Comment from under the video: Contrary to what some have written, this is not narcissism, it's just confidence, talent and decades of experience. Almost nobody in the world could stand up in front of a live audience and a film cre...

Tony,

It's a very good source for sheet music. Don't know if you can access this without joining? Take a look .. and tell me.

Hi Carloss, Another clever use of video to accompany your composition. Those seagulls at the end really were taking control of the music and finishing it off. Where did you get the pictures of the sea with breaking waves? Did you take them? I was half expecting a shark to suddenly appear at some poi...

Hi Carloss,

Fascinating! Loved the way you worked Big Ben into your composition. When were you in London taking those pictures? Loved your way out composition.

Hugh

Thanks Tony for posting your Hymns once again. As Carloss said, you always make it look so easy to play an organ! I go along with what JohnT says about The Day Thou Gavest Lord Is Ended . I had two Uncles who were Vicars, one at Bexhill-on-Sea and the other at Langtree in North Devon. Sang this in t...

Have had a reply from Jørgen now, and he says this about the files that Geoff had bought: Hi Hugh Sorry for the delay in answering. The two style files are SFF1, which means that they will run at all keyboards from the last app. 20 years. There are no logical errors in the files. Runs perfect at my ...

Geoff, Den can send you loads of things that will work on your PSR-S700. You have my email address and phone numbers so just let me know what you want and I'll pass it on to him. I know too that you would like to get those STYLES that you bought to work on your machine, so let's hope Jørgen can help...

Geoff, Going back to the PSR TUTORIAL website and looking at Styles For The PSR-S900/S700 I have downloaded the 300 STYLES from the top one in the list, Tyros Styles for the PSR-S900 . One I have picked up from the list is Guitar Serenade , which is one I have on my Tyros 4 and have used it to play ...

Thanks Les for keeping up with all this. Geoff sent me a few of his STYLE FILES so I could convert them for him, so I have downloaded Jorgen's SFF2 to SFF1 Converter program and this is what I get: http://www.ar-group.org/Files/SFF2Converter1.jpg When I put the STYLE file in I get this: http://www.a...

Geoff, I have downloaded that program from Jørgen's site and put your .STY files you sent me into it. The message that came up was that these .STY files are not Type 2 Style Files. So not able to convert them. I then thought I would try one of those Style Files (ending in .sty) in my Tyros 4 .. and ...

Geoff. Maybe forget about converting those ones you have bought for the moment. If you are just looking for more Styles that will work on your PSR-S700 then in the PSR Tutorial Website you will find this: Yamaha provided a utility, Voice Converter for Tyros2, that can convert T2 styles to a format t...

Thanks Les. Geoff. One of our Members, Jørgen ( joso ) runs his own website called The Unofficial YAMAHA Keyboard Resource Site . He has all sorts of programs he has devised for doing various things to do with Yamaha Keyboards. I have downloaded one that I use quite frequently for converting picture...

Geoff, When looking on the Yamaha Website the PSR-S700 and PSR-S900 have the same Owners Manual. So I think you can take it that anything you find out for the PSR-S900 will also apply to the PSR-S700. The LINK to the PSR-S900 & PSR-700 Manuals is below.

Brian,

Loved this one when it first came out. Thanks for posting.

Hugh

Removing a DRUM sound from the Rhythm When you are listening to the Rhythm in a STYLE do you find that sometimes there is just one drum sound that eventually gets to you? Like a Rim Shot which seems to go on and on bar after bar. Well, there are a couple of things you can do with a Rhythm PART whic...

Carloss, There is a lot involved in your music. I don't think you could write it out on the back of a postage stamp! Your piano has a nice sound. If you tried playing your music on a keyboard, the keyboard would have difficulty recognising any of the harmonies you play as they are so way out. I will...

Some great Hammond playing on Genos

You nned a good amplifier (preferably with a sub-woofer) or headphones to really appreciate this.

If you don't speak German, skip to about 50 secs.

Brian,

I reckon you'd have a job creating a 'bespoke' STYLE to use on your keyboard for something like this!

Hugh

Tony, I do understand that! Perfect pitch is not just about whether something is 'in tune' or not (I would know that!) but if it's being played in the key it should be played in. Now when I play something, as I 'play by ear' and don't have the music, I would play it in a key that is convenient for m...

Using the TRANSPOSE Pressing the + will put the whole keyboard UP one semitone; the - will go DOWN one semitone. http://www.ar-group.org/Files/Tyros4MixingConsole.jpg Beware! Just tap it the once . If you hold your finger down it will shoot up the semitones in no time! Note: You do not have to tap ...

Here's another one played on a Korg Pa4X with a style made from a midi file. It's played by jackoj and is called A Bunch Of Thyme . Jacko says: The PA4X is a remarkable keyboard, it converted that style from a midi file but I must say that not all midi files are as true, they must be of high quality...

and here's another one by here.

LoLa & Hauser - Moonlight Sonata

Den, I have been doing a bit of experimenting and discovered that if I use the FINGERED option I have to play chords with a minimum of three notes . I tried playing a chord progression just holding two notes down each time: C E ; A C ; D F ; and G B . With AI FINGERED it picked up the chords from th...

There are several types of Chord FINGERING you can set up.
