Hi all friends,
I am going to create a new original expansion without using predefined voices of extracted voices from known expansions.
I have found this article: http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/articles/voices.htm. That is as single variation as existing voices.

Is there a way to know factory wavesounds present in a keyboard and a way to mix them to create new vce voices?

Is also possibile to use an editor and to save them on pc, in order to load them in a expansion?

best regards
AC

Hi AC,

First, what keyboard model are we talking about here?

A so-called "VCE Voice" is just a Voice Set file, basically a Standard MIDI file that calls ONE specific Preset Voice (or installed Expansion Voice) and may change certain Voice Set parameters (e.g. Attack Time, Release Time, etc.) and/or the effects used. You CANNOT mix multiple VCE files.

With the Genos and Tyros5 you have access to certain Preset Voices via the YEM (Yamaha Expansion Manager) on the computer and you can create your own Expansion Voices from their components (so-called "Elements") (if necessary, also combined with additional, own Wave Samples).

With all other YEM compatible models (e.g. PSR-S/PSR-SX/PSR-A5000) you cannot create your own Expansion Voices from Preset Voices, but you can only change Preset Voices within the editing options on the instrument (in the "Voice Set" or "Voice Edit" display as well as in the Mixer display) and then save as "User Voice" or directly in Registrations. It should be noted that such User Voices can only be used in Keyboard Parts, i.e. not in Style Parts, Multi Pads or MIDI files.


Best regards,
Chris
