Modifying an existing style.

[bobn1944]

Hi everyone.
I want to modify an existing style changing the voice/instrument in each of the OTS and or 4 variations on my Psr S950.
I have looked at some style lessons in the tutorials and also a couple of videos on You Tube, but they cover recording new
drum pattern, rythmes, chords, and bass etc. I don't want to do that. I just want to use an existing style and change the
right 1, right 2 and left/lower voices. Could anyone point me in the right direction please.
Many thanks in advance. Regards Bob

1. Load the OTS, say OTS1.
2. Make the voice changes you want.
3. Press Memory button
4. Press the OTS1 button.
5. You'll be prompted to save the style, which you can do now, or after you've changed all the OTSs you want.

Hope this helps,
Fred

Hi Fred
Thank you so much for that information.
15 minutes spent at first attempt changing 4 OTSs and was done.
You make it so easy.
I have been looking at a couple of your videos on registrations
so that will be my next challenge.

Best regards
Bob

Bob, you know that doing this you can alter the voice as well.
Click a voice, a screen appears with the voice highlighted.
Click 'voice set' a screen appears with sliders and when you play with the sliders the sound of the voice changes.
If you press SAVE the voice will be saved but overrides the old voice (in the style but not the onboard styles) unless you give it a different name!. If you press EXIT nothing will change.

If you like the new voice you can save it in the USER area and than save it on an USB stick in a folder ie MyVoices for later use.
Mind! If you use a voice and give it ie 'MyGrandPiano' as new name, on the 950 the new name doesn't show. It will still show 'Grandpiano' however you changes are saved in it.

Have fun
Dick

No, I didn't know you could do that.
Thanks for the information Dick.
Sounds like fun! I will certainly give it a go.

Neither did I. The number of toys that we can play with on these machines seems to be limitless. What amazing value they are!

Am I correct in believing that if it's a pre-set style that one is changing, you can't save the modified style, other than under a different name?

Hi Alan
I agree with you regarding the toys on these keyboards being limitless .
I have had mine here in Thailand for over 3 years now and am only scratching the surface.
This forum is fantastic for me living here, accessing information, as keyboards are not really popular in Thailand.
I don't know anyone who owns one to share information.
I don't know the answer to your question about changing a pre-set style under the same name,
but I'm sure Fred or someone on here will answer it for you.
I save all my changed styles under a new name and save them on a usb memory stick.
That way I have two styles for the price of one.
Best regards
Bob

Well ...
1. You can't save over a preset style.
2. You can certainly modify a preset style.
3. After you've modified it, you must save it somewhere (other than preset). You can save it in the User drive, a hard drive or a USB drive.
4. When you save it, you have to give it a name, but it doesn't have to be a different name. There's nothing stopping you from saving 60sRock as the name of a user style.

Thank you Fred. I'm clear on that now.
