I think that is not possible to create megavoice sounds with YEM. But it possible to use megavoice tracks from a midi file or style with a VST instrument on a Daw like cubase or sonar? For example If have a library for kontakt or a vst instrument that has the same megavoice articulations.
I Found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMf-Un707JA. But I don't know how to do that, please help me! :)

It's diffiult to know any details of what they did, since the only graphics in that video is a still image which doesn't show anything helpful. But speaking in general, you can do the following:

(1) Connect your keyboard to your computing device via USB-MIDI or Bluetooth MIDI.

(2) On your keyboard, set up the MIDI send options to transmit the parts you want to play using virtual instruments.

(3) On your computing device, set up MIDI tracks in your DAW to receive those channels (parts) from your keyboard.

(4) Assign the desired virtual instruments to the MIDI tracks.

Those instructions are vague because they're just the general steps. More detailed instructions require knowing details such as what DAW and/or other software is being used, as well as the specifics of how all of this will be used. For instance, if you're wanting to play live then you might need to turn off Local Control so the keyboard's sounds don't play along with the sounds from the virtual instruments. Or, if you're recording your performance then you can just record the MIDI output from your keyboard to tracks in your DAW, then output the MIDI tracks to the desired virtual instruments and edit them however needed to select the desired virtual instrument presets, achieve the desired velocity-switching with the notes, etc.
