I don't know how the Es module will work, but I have some issues with the KB ES and tring to use it as an arranger module. I discussed this with Rikki in this thread:
http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/010322.html The discussion is near the end of the thread. This doesn't mean the module will act the same way, but....... just thought you should know.
You could modify any or every style you have to suit any module. You would need to go into the style and change all of the instrument patch and bank data. As Rikki said, that's a bit of work. I use software and have done it several times, and it takes me at least a few minutes per style. Imagine doing a whole kb set...
That's why I look for the best possible GM solution with OMB. At some point I will finish my "supersoundfont", but once it's done I'm set, because I can use OMB in the GM voice mode. Unfortunately, you can't do that with a hardware arranger.
