Yamaha DGX500 Styles+Voices+Midi files

by (Pastor)Chris
(Tennessee, USA)

Can anyone tell me where I can find any free styeles, voices or midi files for the above. I am particularly interested in Contemporary Christian styles/files, etc.

I have found some, such as Higherpraise.com (great site) but they never seem to add to their library files anymore.

Any help would be more than just appreciated.

Thanks.

Be as blessed by the Lord as only He able to bless you.

Recording and playing recorded floppy discs on Keyboard Yamaha dgx-500

by Chris
(Sterling, VA)

I have a Yamaha DGX-500. I've learned how to record my songs onto the Keyboard's memory, however, there's only five memory "users", so now I want to record songs using the floppy disc insert on the keyboard. I tried and it's really confusing. Any help on how to use that? The floppy disc recording thingy on the keyboard?? thanks a million!

Yamaha DGX-500 No sound when playing from keyboard

by Dick

I suspect my problem is related to MIDI local control being off; but I can't turn it on. Whenever I turn power on, I get the "pop" in the local speakers but whenever I try to move the left Overall button down to MIDI to turn on local control nothing happens except the disk light starts blinking and there is no disk inserted.

Other Yamaha keyboards have a method of doing a factory reset; but I can't find instructions to do that for the DGX-500. I've tried the instructions for another keyboard which involved holding the + and - keys down while turning power on; but that doesn't seem to do anything.

My Yamaha dgx 500 will not switch on - brand new adaptor, and sourced in independant 240v supply. i switch the red power on button and there is no power - is there a fuse internally which may have blown which i can replace? or is it a more expensive job. by the way i have a gig tonight sat 2/1/10 and would like the impossible to happen and it be fixed by 9pm cheers.

Yamaha DGX-500 with Reason or Audacity?

by Jackswan
(Charlotte, NC)

I recently recieved a DGX-500 as a gift w/o a manual, or the cd w/ driver. I searched this forum for places w/ driver but the suggested links are broken.

I am basically trying to figure out, if it is possible to use as a midi-controller thru reason? I have a m-audio midisport 1x1, not sure what all I need?

Thank you.

I played the DGX-500 and loved many of the sounds. Is there a DGX model similar that has 88 weighted or semi-weighted keys and has the same sounds?

Thanks,

I have a yamaha dgx-500 and I want to hook it up to my computer and record and burn it to a cd. Will the drivers do that or will I need to get another type of software to record and burn? Thanks
