Korg to Yamaha styles???

Greetings to you all.

Any advice with converting from Korg to Yamaha styles would be much appreciated

Due to acccident I had about 4 weeks ago I am having difficulty playing the keyboard at the moment.
So I am spending more time on the computer.

I am making  korg styles from a lot of music that I have  on   commercial music CDs.

I use  "Riff Station" to make a wav file of the  CD music, then convert it into a midi using various  other free software.

Some midis don't sound that brilliant. I think the original music with strong vocals are the problem.

Then using a  Korg PA4X I convert the midi into a style.
the PA4X has a built in program to do that.


What I have  a problem with, is  converting a Korg style into a Yamaha style, which I can then use on a Tyros2 and 4.
I have been using "Style Works 2000 Universal" with very limited results.


thank You.
Mike.

Have you checked this page? 

http://psrtutorial.com/sty/keyboards/korg.html

Yes I have.  And have all those styles.
Not sure how that page  helps with the actual conversion from Korg to Yamaha styles.
thanks.

After I have converted to a wav file with "Riff Station" I  use "Intelliscore Polyphonic WAV to MIDI Converter" to make the midi.  you can download trial but it only allows 30 seconds to be played. the full version will cost you $129.00.

"Amazing Midi" is totally free  but wont do a good job if there is strong vocals in the  wav file.
you can get rid of the voice in  many software programs available but most don't work very well.
I am experimenting with "BB" . "Fruity Loops" , "Ableton Live Suite 8" ,  "Cubase"  and "MIDI File Splitter" which is included in "Cakewalk" to try and get rid of vocals completely.

I have been informed that Apples "Garageband"  is good at removing vocals.
Unfortunately it is a Mac program only, But One can  use an emulator to make your PC think it is a Mac.

I have been told to  use  iPadian Emulator.
Has anyone had any success at removing vocals using  "Garageband"?

Thanks

here is a link on running VMWare to emulate Mac OS on Windows PC.

Not sure if it is free . . . 

Please inform of progress . . . . . i would be interested in learning how to take an MP3 and remove vocals.

I guess you would have to go MP3 to WAV to Midi to Style

thank you for that. I can download it through the link(No:-1) you gave.(google drive) and it is free.

Trying to download through apple is useless. I am hooked into apples UK and US store and it is not available from either.
I note that it states to run on Windows 10 which I found is not very good and I will not use. I will try to run it on  win 7, Win 8.1 and Win Xp. 

The latest version of "Audacity" has a new effect now called "removing vocals"
Not very good. The best I could do with it was running the wav file  through 3 times, saving and reloading in between and nearly got rid of vocals but makes the rest of the audio very muddy.   
Will keep you informed
regards,
Mike.
