Custom Style Recording via an External Sequence Recorder

It is possible to create custom styles for the PSR-8000 using an external sequencer (or personal computer with

sequencing software) rather than the PSR-8000’s STYLE CREATOR function.

■ Connections .....................................................................................................................................................................................

●

Connect the PSR-8000 MIDI OUT to the sequencer

MIDI IN, and the sequencer MIDI OUT to the PSR-8000

MIDI IN.

■ Creating the Data ........................................................................................................................................................................

●

Record all sections and parts using a CM7 (C major

seventh) chord.

●

Record the parts on the MIDI channels listed below,

using the PSR-8000’s internal tone generator. Optimum

compatibility with other instruments which are both XG

and SFF (Style File Format) compatible can be

achieved by using only the XG voices (compatible

instruments include the PSR-730/630, and the CVP-98/

96/94/92).

●

Make sure that the sequencer “ECHO” function is ON,

and the PSR-8000 LOCAL ON/OFF (page 134) is

turned OFF.

●

Record the sections in the order listed below, with a

Marker Meta-event at the top of each section. Enter the

Marker Meta-events exactly as shown (including upper/

lower case characters and spaces).

●

Also include an “SFF1” Marker Meta-event, “SInt”

Marker Meta-event and style name Meta-event at

1|1|000 (the top of the sequence track), and the GM on

Sys/Ex message (F0, 7E, 7F, 09, 01, F7). (“Timing” in

the chart is based on 480 clocks per quarter note.

“1|1|000” is clock “0” of the first beat of the first mea-

sure).

●

The data from 1|1|000 through 1|4|479 is the “Initial

Setup”, and 2|1|000 through the end of Ending B is the

“Source Pattern”.

●

The timing of the Fill In AA and subsequent Marker

Meta-events will depend on the length of each section.
