This program will convert SFF1 format styles for newer/bigger keyboards to run at older/smaller keyboards.
To convert SFF2 format styles (used in Tyros 3 and newer models) use Style Format 2 Converter.
Read about style format differences and how to convert between models at Style File Features.
After conversion the style might need some tweaking:
• To revoice the style: Use the Style Creator at your keyboard or my Style Revoicer software.
• To edit the OTS data: Use the Style Creator at your keyboard or my OTS Editor software.
• To edit the MIDI data: Use the Style Creator at your keyboard or your sequencer program.
• To edit the CASM data: Use my CASM Editor software.
The program can be run in 2 modes:
• Convert a single style file
• Convert all style files in a folder
After conversion the style might need some tweaking:
• Revoice the style: Use the Style Creator at the keyboard or my Style Revoicer software.
• Revoice the OTS: Use the Style Creator at the keyboard or my OTS Editor software.
This program replaces the "No OTS" and the "No Mega" programs and adds some new features.
