Hi everybody,
I just tried to download some Yamaha Styles and see if I can import them into the software but no lock :(
I would appreciate if you would suggest me where to download proper Styles from.

This is where I tried:

Hi,

You can convert styles in format 2 to format 1 using this tool: http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/software/sf2c.
Also, there are a lot on the psrturorial.com, but some are SF2: https://psrtutorial.com/sty/

Thanks.

Hi,
thanks for the links. Actually I downloaded some styles from those links and tried to import to the android midi arranger software but I got some error messages. So, the question is how do I know what style is what format?
I am a whole life Korg user and I almost have no idea about Yamaha styles.

Thanks.

You cannot know unless you actually look inside the file, but there is this tool you can use: http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/software/sff/index.htm
But, what I would do, I would run that style converter on the whole folder with styles and I think it will only convert the ones which are in SF2. You should try it.

Regards.

Thank you so much. By the way do you have plans to make the software import the korg styles as well?
I think in every moder hardware arranger it is possible to export the style as a midi file.
It would be greate if your software could import those midi files.
I know it is a lot of work.

Another topic would be the iPad os. As we all know all the best musical software are only available on iPad. For example the Korg iM1 and so on. On android there is only some limitted ones like Synthfluid that you show in your tutorials. Do you plan to support the IOS and iPad OS platform as well?

Best Regards,
Manouchehr
