is it possible to transfer music finder files on psrs910 to psrsx900
and if so how

ckobu

You need to convert Music Finder to Playlist. The procedure is very simple and in the video describes Tyros4> Genos. I guess the principle is the same for s910> sx900.

Hi kellyboy1,

The Preset Music Finder file (in the "Preset" tab) only contains relatively few entries (= "records") for PSR-S (and Tyros) models. Normally you download the so-called "Music Finder Standard Library" (.mfd) from Yamaha, then copy it into the User drive of the instrument (e.g. PSR-S or Tyros) and then import it from there into the Music Finder.

You can find the corresponding original Music Finder file for the S910 here:
>>> http://services.music.yamaha.com/musicfinder

In conjunction with the MFD import function of the playlist function of the SX900, you can also use .mfd files from any other Yamaha models.

You may have saved such .mfd files on your computer.

If you have created (or edited) the Music Finder Records in your S910 yourself, but have not yet saved them correctly, first save your current Music Finder (as a single .mfd file) in the User Drive and THEN copy this file from there (as described by ckobu) to a USB stick. (All this can be done in the Music Finder File Selection display.).

Alternatively (together with the SX900) you can use any .mfd files from the following sites:
>>> https://psrtutorial.com/sty/OF/musicfinder.html
>>> https://psrtutorial.com/sty/OF/mfdBonus.html

You can also download a very extensive .mfd file (2500 records) from the website of the Swiss musician Emanuel. Click on the red link "Ty5voll_04-2020":

Hope this helps!
