Attached are the links to several, Custom Yamaha Voices I created for the PSR-3000 a few years ago. They will work on any Yamaha Arranger keyboard.

The reason I created them is twofold. First and foremost, I've always noticed that nearly every Grand Piano voice, on any keyboard, sounded a bit thin. Additionally, the Yamaha Grand Piano voice is heavily stereo sampled, therefore, it did not sound good at all when using a mono sound system. Therefore, I opted to create my own, mono, grand piano sounds, sounds that were as close to a real Yamaha grand piano as they could be. I did this while sitting next to a real, Yamaha grand piano and tried my best to duplicate that sound using the effects tools within the PSR-3000. I think I can very close with my efforts.

The second reason I created these voices was I just wanted to sound better while performing. I wanted those right hand voices to jump out and sound like the real thing. I think I managed to accomplish this.

I then experimented with some other sounds, a couple guitars, and a tenor sax voice - just to prove to myself that it could be done and that it wasn't all that difficult. They too are attached via links. I tried to attach the voices directly to the post, but the file types were not permitted.
