2. Can I create Music Styles with GW-8?
Yes. But you need MIDI sequencing software like Cakewalk SONAR (or anything that records midi data)
and the Style Converter software (bundled) to create your own Music Styles. First, you should record the
MIDI data of all the variations of your Music Style and save it into SMF format. Afterwards, you can
convert this SMF file using the GW-8 Style Converter software. When finishing, you must save the
converted file (.STL file) to USB flash memory and load the Music Style into the GW-8.
3. Can I load Music Styles created in other Roland keyboard (E series, VA series)?
No, because the GW-8 has a completely different sound map to other Roland arrangers. Although it has
the same Music Style structure as the E series, the GW-8 can’t recognize the sounds that were used to
record the Music Styles.
