Larry and John, you are both correct. Over the past two decades I've created about a dozen styles from scratch. It took weeks to get that first style I created to sound good enough to use in public. And, it was a bare-bones style for the song "My Girl." A decade later, Jorgen Sorrenson's MIDI to Style program became available, and while it did a good job of establishing the basics of a style, you still have to do lots of tweaking, tuning, adding OTS settings, adding Multi-pads, etc..., and this isn't something that is accomplished in a few hours as well. It's a lot of work.

Over the years I've shared my creations with others on this and other forums. Some of the 50,000 plus styles I now have in my archives are fantastic, while the vast majority are mediocre at best. Then there are some that are just plain awful. Most of the styles in the fantastic category come from folks in the UK that are both very talented, and they also tend to be very creative. Additionally, many of these individuals were either retired and had the time to dedicate to these projects. To them, I am eternally grateful.

Now, if anyone has a need for a Yamaha style for a specific song, let me know via PM or email and I'll do my best to find it. For those that I have sent style files to in the past, they can attest that I only send the best sounding styles. But keep in mind, that I'm limited to Yamaha, and I'm also limited to somewhat older music, therefore, if you're looking for something for a song newer than 20 years, it gets a bit more difficult to find a matching style with the exact intro and ending.

Cheers,

Gary
