How to set a registration button to NOT play a style

I am having a problem with setting a registration button to NOT play a style on my T2 when other buttons do play styles in the same registration bank. This may be an issue on other arrangers as well. As many others do, I use a set of registration settings as a single bank of multiple buttons for one song so I can use the A-B-C-etc buttons to quickly change a multitude of configuration options in real time. For some songs I may not use an accompaniment for the verses, but use an accompaniment for the chorus. As example, Registration button “A” may not have accompaniment set and Registration button “B” does. The T2 does not allow you to set “no style” as the style setting, or for that matter, “no voice” to L, R1, R2, R3 voice settings. With these setting, when playing the chorus, with Registration button “B”, I will in some way end the accompaniment, let’s say Ending I. If I hit the Registration “A” button a fraction of a second too early, as Ending I is completing and I am preparing to go to the next verse, the unwanted Style associated with Registration button “A” starts to play. This is a real pain. I have tried, without success of making sure that “Accompaniment” and “Start” and “Stop” and “Stop Sync” buttons are all off (unlit) when I save the settings in Registration button “A”. However, if the very end of the Ending I of the style from Registration button “B” is still sounding (i.e. a dying cymbal crash) sure enough the style associated with Registration button “A” begins to play when pushed. My plan to solve the problem of Yamaha not allowing you to have a registration button with no possibility of a style playing is to create a blank style called “No Style”. Similarly, I will create a blank voice called “No Voice” and use those to fill in the sections of the registration that I want to blank out. (This makes sense to me since several people have told me I have no style and no voice ) I am wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem (with the keyboard, not with critics) and if they tried the above listed solution, or something different.

Robert, As long as you select a single parameter in the Registration Memory Contents page the registration information can be saved and recalled. For example, you can save just the Pedal or Mic settings without saving anything else and the only thing that registration button will recall is the selected item. You do not have to save a style, voice, or anything other than a single piece of information to make the registration recognized. Keep in mind, however, that the information that is currently turned on will remain functional unless it is turned off. If you wish to use a particular style but not have it playing during certain segments of a song, such as during a time when you are playing your own instrumental introduction, you can have that style volume turned down to Zero in registration number 1, then set the style volume at 100 in registration 2, and use the remaining registrations for various voices, or for turning off certain parameters or style voices. All of this can be saved into registration memory. I just did this on the PSR-3000, which has the same registration features as the T2. Essentially, the keyboard will do exactly what you tell it to do. Good Luck, Gary ------------------ Travlin' Easy
