Do the converted PSR740 styles exist that can be uploaded to my PSR SX900?

I realize these are different formats but wondered if there were converted styles available that would work.
Thanks for any clues if this is possible (or a pipedream!)

Hi Bosauthor,

PSR-740 Styles are in the "SFF1" format. Current models use "SFF2" format (also called "SFF GE"), but can also play "SFF1" Styles of course.

You can download all PSR-740 Preset Styles here as a zip file:
>>> https://psrtutorial.com/styles/psr-740/740-preset.zip

Just unzip the file and all 16 additional zip files contained therein to a new folder on your computer and copy the folder to a USB stick. On the SX900 you can play the Styles directly from the USB stick.

Alternatively, you can download just a few specific Style categories. On the PSR-740 Style site, click on the name of a Style category (e.g. "8Beat") to download it as a zip file:
>>> https://psrtutorial.com/sty/yamaha/psr-740.html

On the bottom of that site you can find many other PSR-740 Styles.


Have fun! :)

Best regards,
Chris

Yes, they are different formats, but your new keyboard can handle the old styles.

It's the other way around where you need to convert (trying to use a new style on an old keyboard).
