Hi Bryan,
you can also use Michael Beddeson's "Style Maker" program ( free) to create styles for psr's ( .sty format) which can then be used in xg works ( as a style block). Also found (with the few that I have tried) that if you load an emc converted style into the stylmaker program and resave it should also then work in xgworks. Must admit I haven't tried Casm Edit so I can't really comment on which is easier to use.
Just got back from holidays. I've finished reading about 70% of the manual. Unfortunately the one really great feature that the program is capable of is not mentioned in the manual (the "how to" load psr styles and make them useable as style blocks) great feature, no mention ( at least, not to date.
With the 1000's of converted yamaha styles available (free, some good, some not so good) the program is a gem.
best wishes
Rikki

The internal style files are .stx and are totally different from .sty files. However, XGworks will use .sty files quite happily. Just one thing - if you use styles converted from other manufacturers, you have to make sure that the proper Yamaha sysex is in place. Best way to do this is to use CasmEdit on a genuine style file to see what the sysex is. You can find a link on Jorgen's web site.
