Hi,
Normally I have my Genos keyboard set so that the keyboard splits once for the left hand chording at Ab2 and the remainder of the keyboard is set with no more splits for the right hand playing melody.
I have purchased a 3rd party style that has OTS voices that split the right hand area such that one voice is for the lower set of keys and a different voice using the higher keys. One OTS setting has the voices split and the other OTS setting has the two voice layered.
My question is what happens to the settings on my keyboard when I am finished playing this style and go to another style - what will happen to the splitting of the keyboard ?
How do I get it back to "normal" ?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Mark,

There are two ways to handle this. One is with registrations where each one would have it's own split points.

The other way is to make a start-up registration that has all the global settings the way you want them, that you can load up should a style change anything you don't want. I prefer the one registration per song method. There is no wrong or right way to do it, as  long as it does what you want.

Hi
Just to clarify; if you set up a registration (start up registration) with the right hand keyboard set up with no splits (other than for the left hand accompaniment split) then when you load a style that has right hand splits in it you can create a registration for that style; then when you go back to your original start up registration then the keyboard will return to the normal way with no right hand splits in it ?
Is their any particular box that must be checked when you create your registration (pressing the memory button) ?
Thanks for your help with this.

Hi Mark,

You understand correctly.

I have all the boxes checked on the pop up window for registration memory. I does no harm to do to have them all selected. I have been doing it this way since my first Tyros 1.

I disagree. Just check the midi versus Audio song thread to see how much work you cause yourself by indiscriminately checking boxes in the Memory screen.

What if you want to change your pedal configuration? You'd have to re-memorize every registration. Same with Assignable Buttons, Songs, Live Control, etc.

I highly recommend you check only those boxes you want the registration to memorize.

Split is part of the Style group. If the Style box is checked, the split will be memorized.

Fred,

What kind of work? I have noticed no problems using this method. Do you have a link for the thread? I can't seem to bring it up.

Thanks,

Rick D.

Other examples:
I memorize tempo only in my first registration. That allows me to adjust the tempo manually without the remaining registrations changing it back. Useful when you have a large crowd of singers, as they react more slowly.

Same with transpose. I memorize it only in my first registration. Then I can manually adjust it to match the singer's range without other regulations changing it back.

Same with the mic settings. I don't memorize those settings so I can set up the mic to match the venue, not the registration I've memorized some time ago.

Cheers,
Fred

Thanks Fred,

Now I know why I have not had problems with doing it my way. I don't use my keyboard in the same way you do. I have a registration for each song and don't play out. 🙂

Thanks again for your reply.

Just an FYI, I use registrations for *everything*, and I agree 100% with Fred. If you memorize everything at every step, you'll eventually run into problems; You save only what you need to save at each step; I almost always have tempo, song, and vocal harmony unchecked (Only checking them and saving when I *need* to change them). Otherwise, if I decide to slow a song down to a ballad, I'd have to re-register every single registration memory (or use registration freeze tempo)

I do the same, key change (if any) at the start, and don't save it subsequently. Fred is correct, splits and left voices are all assigned under style.

I use 1-8 registration *banks* per song (anywhere from 6 to 80 registration memories per song, yes)
