You�re still missing the point, so I will try a different direction.

The same applies to the MS.
Get 10 users of the MS, and the same Yamaha 8 beat style, then ask them to edit it to sound better than the original, and what you will get back are 10 different versions.
How do you define whether they are better or not?

Hopefully the above will emphasize the difficulty in conversion of styles, into a version that is better than the original. (It�s just subjective)



The idea is to take a Tyros2/S910 style, and load it in the Mediastation, then re voice each Yamaha style track with an equivalent voice from the Mediastation.

We aren't talking about swapping style parts around in either case...we are talking about using the same style patterns and plugging in the relevant (or equivalent and supposedly better) voices in the Mediastation in place of the same type sounds in the Tyros2/S910.

If the Yamaha style has an acoustic nylon guitar in the style's chord track 1, then the Mediastation should be subbing one of it's acoustic nylon guitars in the same track using the same pattern.

If the Yamaha style is using a strings patch for the pad track, then the Mediastation must use one of it's string patches.

It must do this for all parts (variations), including the Intros and Endings, as well as the fills.

I'm not missing the point at all...I'm very clear on what the Mediastation should be doing...it's exactly what was claimed it could do, so let's see if it can.

I'm also quite interested in how long it will take to make the conversion.

Ian

BTW...the style played in the Mediastation should be able to read all the chords the Yamaha will play, including inversions.
