Hi Dan,
how did you manage to get around the difference in the SD2 GM & Live Drums versus the Yamaha XG mapped drums.

The biggest headache I have when converting a Yamaha style across to my Korg is the drums.
With the korg , I could at least create some drum kits that match the Yamaha Drum Mapping, but wouldn't really have that option with the SD2.

For instance, there's a number of yamaha styles that use brush sounds, even though it's not using the actual brush kits.( ie there's brush sounds as part of the xg standard kits that are not available in GM standard kits)
Do the brush sounds just get left out? or are they played as some other type of drum sound.

best wishes
Rikki

With this module, vArranger try to do everything for the musician, so he just have to load the style and play.

You can select the synth module connected to vArranger, and it will try to do the best.

For now the options are : GM / GM2 / GS / XG / KETRON SD2 / KETRON SD4.

I implements new modules as clients need them.

I am not sure about the Motif megavoices, but I can remap if there is a need

The Tyros 4 will stay at it's high place ! And congratulation to Yamaha for thoses inspiring styles
