Pa4x and Pa900 styles compatibility

Hi everyone,

I have a Pa4x, but a church I visit bought a Pa900. They lend me it to add kompa styles (Caribbean styles like zouk, kompa, etc).

I tried to transfer styles from my Pa4x to the Pa900 but an error message from the Pa900 says "This is not a Pa style".

I created a style from scratch from the Pa900 and transferred to the Pa4x with no problem tough.

Is there a way I can save my styles in the Pa4x in a way that is compatible with the Pa900?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Fabien,

I´m quite sure that the "downgrading" of styles won´t work.

The PA900 is a mid-class key, the PA4X a high-class.

PA4X has a lot of features the 900 doesn´t have so it´s quite normal that the "cheaper" can´t play styles form the more expensive.

Vice versa of course no problem ;)

If you´ve got Yamaha-key you can load PSR970 styles in Tyros5, but no Tyros5 styles in PSR970 , like with Korg

Yeah I got it. It's not backward compatible. I was hoping that I could exclude something in the file in order to make it compatible.

I searching a software I thought I saw that allows for conversion of styles from different brand into the target one.

I hope it wasn't my imagination.

Thanks Snoopy.
