Is it true you lose the song if you turn off the keyboard ?

KMNKeybordValt on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm

KMNKeybordValt on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


Yes you can you have to use your Output Jack and go line in on the mixer

Im trying to get a PSR-S900 to replace my PSR-3000 but if you look at the PSR-3000 Videos i made it almost the same thing.

thanks.

Thuzjak3 don’t forget that you can ALSO vary the sound of the keyboard with MIDI effects settings (reverbs, choruses, other effects), so you can take one of the basic voices and modify it until it sounds like what you want. Not as direct as a full synthesizer, but you might hit upon the sound you want. Also with a computer you can program more sound effects than the choice list in the keyboard itself and the keyboard will still play it! You can even play notes beyond the actual keys!

The best ones that i got out of the PSR-S500 was the ( Live Allegro ) String patch.

DahliaSpring on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


I didn’t hear the string voices. I am looking for a keyboard that sounds like REAL VIOLINS.

thuzjak3 on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


excuse me for bothering you but what do you know about syx files?i have cakewalk sonar and i can send/recieve syx files but what are they?i have downloaded some syx files and sent them but nothing happends

thuzjak3 on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


thanx alot!

KMNKeybordValt on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


the only way you can make new voices is to layer the sounds. If you go to YAMAHA PSR-S500 Keyboard Tutorial 2 it will show you how to do it. I wish this keyboard can sampel

thuzjak3 on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


indeed it is!its a great keyboard but it misses some functions!do you maybe know how to make sounds on it?i need sound that is on one clip here on youtube!type aziz catic and listen!how to make that sound?

KMNKeybordValt on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


The PSR-S500 is not expandible I wish it was because it is so light to handel

thuzjak3 on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


i know they are preset but can they be deleted and replaced???with some sort of memory expansion??chips are just chips they store data in format that keyboard reads why wouldent i be able to replace them?flash somehow?

KMNKeybordValt on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


they only come preset to the keyboard all PSR Keyboards are like that

thuzjak3 on Sat, 16th May 2009 7:35 pm


is there another way???flashing maybe?

Is there any option for this .. this is really required.

I found out, there is a way to have something like a freeze functionality on psr-s550!
If you checkout the registrations I made as a free sample, you will see, that this registrations will not change the following values:
•ABC stytus (on/off)
•ABC fingering mode
•selected style
•active style-section
•tempo
•style volume
•transpose value
So simply cheout the following url and download your free sample:
