I stand corrected. The style conversion feature in the MZ is to convert Roland and Technics styles TO the MZ format, not the other way around. So I will not be able to convert TO Roland and Technics styles. Have to do it by the old " record the arrangements to an EXTERNAL sequencer ( see my post above ) method. The feature is a plus for me though I guess if I can obtain some good KN or Roland styles. I already have a bunch off them converted for Yamaha though, and if I convert the styles to a midi file and save that midi to disk I can still use the song to pattern creator in the MZ to reproduce those styles. Having the original Roland or Technics styles themselves would save me a lot of work though because I could avoid the conversion of a style to mid file step and avoid the song to pattern step in the MZ as well.
