Hi Mike,
I'm not really familiar with the Sonic Cell,
but I gather it has buttons you can actually push to change voices, banks etc ??
(wheras the sd2 has nothing) or did you get your Tyros to do it all including any specific sounds & banks??

I midied my SD2 to my PSR1500, but for melody, I was only able to choose voices from the default gm 0 bank.( ie the other psr bank changes didn't match the sd2 banks)
For styles (if I wanted the sd2 to play the style tracks) I was able to write the correct bank & program changes into the style itself.
The psr & sd2 combination for melody tracks, wasn't ideal.

Great to hear you've got a good combination going with the Sonic Cell & Tyros.

best wishes
Rikki

[B]I found the same to be true with my Sonic Cell and Tyros combo. I can layer the Tyros' R1, R2, R3, and Left voices with the Sonic Cells sounds of the same category (bank) in Performance Mode and of course choose specific sounds from other banks, whether GM, Preset, or SRX expansion cards if preferred. I can also turn off local control for R1 on the Tyros and play just the Sonic Cell sound in Patch Mode (part 1) and then layer R2, R3, and Left voices of the Tyros to create rich layered sounds combining both the Sonic Cell and Tyros' sounds together.
