Revo Drum Cleaner converts SFF2 Genos to the "normal" SFF2 format.
Style Format 2 Converter converts "normal" SFF2 to the newest SFF1 format. SFF2 is also known as SFF GE.
Style Old Format Converter converts newest SFF1 format to various older SFF1 sub formats.
If a SFF2 format style has to be converted to run at an older keyboard using CASM section format 1 (old), e.g. PSR 9000 follow this procedure:
• If a Genos SFF2 format style, then convert using the "Revo Drum Cleaner" program
• Then convert the style file in the "Style Format 2 Converter" program
• Then convert the converted style file in the "Style Old Format Converter" program while setting the appropriate parameters
