Help question X9l style ????

[Flupke]

Hello friends, I own many styles that all start with X9I, but these do not work on my Genos. What kind of Styles are these and can I possibly convert them to a regular Style to use on my Genos.
And what is an OTS extension?

So my file consists of:
X9I Feel.mid
X9I Feel.ots
X9I Feel.sty

The midi works fine.

Hi Flupke,

The prefix "X9" in these file names means that these styles or MIDI files were programmed for the PSR-9000. The "X" here means that the styles/MIDI files are in XG format.

These files probably come from the German company DOO:
>>> https://www.d-o-o.de/index.php?&lang=en

The following letter "I" already belongs to the (abbreviated) song title, e.g.:

X9I_feel.sty
X9I_feel.mid
... are style and MIDI file for "I Feel Good"

X9I_can't.sty
X9I_can't.mid
... are the style and MIDI file for "I Can't Stop Loving You"

With the PSR-9000, the OTS data (One Touch Settings) was not yet included in the style file, but there were separate files for it. These ".ots" files are useless for newer keyboards. I don't know of any tool that can be used to read/convert OTS settings from such .ots files, for example to use them with current keyboards/styles.

By the way, such "X9 ... .sty" style files are in SFF1 format and should in principle also work on current keyboards. If the files are zipped, they must of course first be unpacked on the computer so that they can be used on the keyboard. However, voices of certain style parts may need to be replaced and/or effects adjusted.


Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Chris

Thanks Chris,

Very clear...so now convert all the styles...they are indeed from the first edition of DOO
