WONDERFUL NEWS! I just received word from a friend (in France) who who actually already owns a Yamaha Tyros . . . probably one of the first ones released. He tried out the Left Voice 'freeze procedure' which I outlined above, and confirmed that it works on the Tyros the SAME way it works on my PSR2000 and Denny's 9000pro. I'm going to bed tonight with a SMILE on my face. I'm sure you all know what keyboard I'm purchasing now.

PS: My Tyros friend also confirmed that he was able to successfully load my PSR2000 MusicFinder file into the Tyros MusicFinder as well. There were a few isolated glitches, but those can easily & quickly corrected (edited) using Fabien's excellent Music Finder Editor Utility. The Tyros also uses the same Style setup as PSR2000 , so Yamaha styles with integrated OTS will play on Tyros perfectly.
