Just Alex Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 And this is the last one for today. So far, most advanced one I ever did. This style is created from scratch, this is not a conversion and is made for a great song by The Beach Boys - "California Girls" This style will have it's big, "commercial" brother, with more detailed and longer patterns, but even this one is way better than anything already available for this song, including Tyros/Genos and other high end workstations cgirls2.ac7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Alex Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 Digging into S970 and other high-end Yamaha keyboard styles currently. And found out a funny thing - while these keyboards can have up to 16 tracks in a style, if you look inside, actual sounds are just overdubs, so whole premium style can be thinned down to 2 drum tracks+1 bass line and 5-6 chording tracks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Alex Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 And here it is - "Electro House" from Yamaha's dance music expansion pack for S970 series keyboards. EleectroHouse970.ac7 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Alex Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 It would be great to hear your feedback - what needs to be improved or whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Alex Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 Found an undocumented feature - That Excel converter can convert not only Yamaha styles, but also Band in a Box .STY files, which despite having same extension, have totally different format.

Just Alex Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 To make things clear, I will use the following labels for style marking. CONVERSION - These are styles I've converted from Yamaha/Korg/etc. They are free. For the styles I've created from scratch, I'll use tag CUSTOM. This means that styles marked with that tag are made by me for commercial purposes (I'm planning to sell them on etsy later), and I'm posting here a stripped down (but still very very usable) version with less instruments, simplified tracks and so on. CUSTOM: Eddy Huntington - "USSR" - Nice Italo Disco track from late 80s. Lite version posted here has no intro, only Main, Fill A-B and Variation, but still very usable.

Just Alex Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 CUSTOM: "SU.DISCO.80" - Dance pop style, mainly popular in 80s in USSR and nearby countries like Poland, Bulgaria and so on. SU.DISCO.80.ac7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Alex Posted November 4, 2020 Author Share Posted November 4, 2020 Well, my self-isolation is over, back to work, so there will be fewer styles... CUSTOM: "3 Musketeers theme" from the same named musical. Mostly British music hall style, can be used for songs like "Honey Pie", "When I'm 64" (less likely), "Good old fashioned lover boy" and so on. musket8.ac7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyLee Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Alex! Kudos on getting back to work! Best Wishes! Do you by any chance happen to have a good country style 2 Step to fit songs like San Antonio Rose or On The Road Again? I would be really grateful if you could upload it then I shall not bug you no more! Peace out!! RickyLee Idaho, USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Alex Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 Yes I have all kinds of styles, the problem is I'm not familiar with that kind of music too well, so I don't know which version you're referring to. For example, for "san antonio rose" has hundreds of different of arrangement on youtube, and I have no idea which one is "correct". So if you can provide link to a "proper" example, that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyLee Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Here we go, my friend!! This is the kind of rhythm I am looking for....enjoy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Alex Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Guys, if you want more styles, I need more feedback. No feedback means there is no need for styles, so, I will not post them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyLee Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Do you have anything converted from ketron sd-1 or 5 that with oldies 4/4 rhythms like what fits the Rhythm Of The Rain by Cascades 1963 or Poison Ivy from Coasters 1950s?

Just Alex Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Please post sample song links, so I'd know for which version you're looking for From U.S. Country music performers I really know only Dolly Parton, due to her A+++ grade udders And for others. CUSTOM: Arabesque - "Born to reggae". Slow dance style pop reggae from early 80's Germany. (Yeah, everybody was Kung Fu fighting, oh sorry, doing reggae, that period, even Germans ) brg6.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyLee Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Alex: The three above are samples of the rhythms I am looking for, as far as oldies go. I could really use some 4/4 ballads or swing rhythms that may be Ketron rhythms converted. If you have any others that might fit into these categories..please include in a zip file if you have the time. If I knew how to convert these files I would take a crack at it. I sort of have a learning disability that makes it hard for me to understand complicated things...hard to explain. Some of it may be my age..who knows. Do you have any converted rhythms from Korg at all? Just curious. Korg is my my #1 choice but I haven't seen any of those anywhere. Thanks so much God Bless Rick M.

Just Alex Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 As said earlier, I have everything, the problem is time I'll try to upload ketron/korg styles separately. Meanwhile, here is CUSTOM: Sofia Rotaru - "Lavanda" - a smooth, ballroom style song, with some French flair. It is loosely based on Leonard Kohen's "Dance me till the end of love". I'm using CT-X series ability to have more than 1 measure long fill-ins, so here Fill in B is actually variation C. There are intro and ending too. lavanda.2.ac7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyLee Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 You are a jewel! Thank you so much for sharing. This gives some of less capable individuals the opportunity to utilize these things as well. You shall be blessed somewhere for your efforts.

Just Alex Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 This week is a really busy week. Here are Ketron SD1 country styles. These are in Yamaha format, you can download trial version of "one mand band" software to listen to them, and then tell me which files you want to be heard on Casio.

RickyLee Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hi Alex!! I did as you asked. I was able to monitor the sound of each style with One Man Band app and I chose the following I would like to use on the CTX-5000. They are as follows: Bluegrass 118 sty Bluegras 2 116 sty Kramer 87 sty Country Rock 1 Country 1 Country 2-Step Country Pop 2 Country Pop 3 Country Slow 1 Maybe they could be sent in a zip file? I so appreciate your effort. I think I have or had some of them in a Korg PA 80 file year ago. I didn't do any of the conversions as I am totally un-knowing as to how to do such a thing. I truly miss the Korg styles...Rock and Country that would work on the PA 50 and Micro-arranger. Oh well!! I will look forward to these. Thank you so much. Peace Out!!!
