Got a request to do the Hank Williams song Kaw Liga.

I don't know if there's any style out there that would work on the PA 4X? Suggestions?

This is the song:

being its a double tempo song requiring two performance style setups to toggle to & from, or create a backing sequence,...or I'd just improvise & play it free style Piano w/Lh Bass make it your own.

I'll see what I can come up with when I get a chance. Haven't tried it on the Korg yet.

Tx Don. It was a request, otherwise I wouldn't mess with it.

I'm guessing some PSR person has made one for the Yammie.

Tx again.

Slowed down a bluegrass style. Works great.

Tx again.

Hi Rog
Bit off topic, but I gather you used a number of user created SongStyles on your PSR.?

Not really a big fan of EMC style conversion software( even though I've owned and updated it since about 1990).

I answered a post on Korg forum the other day where a guy wanted to convert a huge number of PSR song styles to Korg using PA4x song to style convertor, unfortunately it doesn't work for song styles only song midifiles. ( Won 't go into detail , I did that over there). He was considering a Korg only if his PSR styles could be converted.

Anyway got me thinking, decided to give EMC a go with some old PSR song style someone gave me a few years ago. Put them thru, and I was quite surprised that they sounded reasonably ok.
Bit of a tweak with volume and new instruments, and possibly quite useable. They were'nt songs I would normally play, do didn't bother editing further.

These were really simple user created song styles ( I assume) because while I was doing them , I accidently did a folder of s950 factory styles and they sounded awful.

If you don't have EMC yourself, happy to put some thru the conversion process.
It batch converts a complete folder in just minutes, so wouldn't be any trouble.
Tweaking, I'd leave up to you. Haha.

Rikki,

Tx for the response. With Yamaha, I did use a fair number of user created styles. So far with the PA 4X I haven't needed those. I've found a PA 4X style for almost every song I do. And in most cases, I actually like the 4X style better or have found the 4X styles pretty easy to edit to my needs. As in the case of Kaw Liga, I found a 4X style that works.

Also, I'm not familiar with the conversion program you mention. But then, I'm new to this.

Tx again,

Rog

Believe it or not, I had a request for Kawliga Friday night and was NOT prepared to do it. But of course I did it anyway. I guess you could safely say I "made it my own". smile
I have decided to share it here, as an example of what a guy will do for a ten buck tip. I grabbed a style, actually one I use for Polk Salad Annie, slowed it way down, guessed at the key and played it. Well I guessed wrong so changed the key from Em to Dm after the first verse. There are a lot of mistakes, including one place where my foot was accidentally toggling the vocal harmony switch, but guess what, the people who requested it were totally happy!
