starstarstarstarstar 		Question about transfer
by: Brent

Does this technique work with transferring voices FROM PSR E343 to Sonogenic 500???
Neither of these YAMAHA products have a USB port. But both have a USB-B port.
To make a LONG story short...I'm trying to transfer some of the voices from my PSR E343 to my Sonogenic 500. The voices on my PSR are perfect. But the voices on the 500 are almost useless. Whoever heard of a QUACKLD??? What instrument is this? Maybe this just can't be done? And I'm wasting money on useless cables.

I will be able to use them for what I want.

Hi Kerry Jane,

Just ignoring the models you've mentioned as there are in general a few ways to transfer files (styles, songs, voices, multipads etc.)
You don't need a midi-cable for this.
If you have a USB-connection on both keyboards transfer the files to as USB-stick, put the stick in the other keyboard, call up the style,place it in the USER AREA, active the style in the normal way, and that's it.
If one of the keyboards doesn't has a USB connection but, for example a floppydrive, transfer the file to whatever medium it has on keyboard No.1, transfer the file to a computer and from there to a medium that fits the other keyboard. There you place it in the user area and you are in business.
Keep in mind that in your case, going from a PSR900 to a PSR700 not all the voices are available on the PSR700 so it is possible that the style does not sound exactly the same as on the PSR900.

I hope this makes it clear to you.
Regards
Dick
