Custom Style Recording via an External Sequence Recorder
You can create custom styles for the PSR-9000 using an external sequencer (or per-
sonal computer with sequencing software), instead of using the PSR-9000’s STYLE
CREATOR function.
■
Connections
•
Connect the PSR-9000 MIDI OUT to the sequencer MIDI
IN, and the sequencer MIDI OUT to the PSR-9000 MIDI
IN.
•
Make sure that the sequencer “ECHO” function is ON,
and the PSR-9000 LOCAL ON/OFF (page 151) is turned
OFF.
■
Creating the Data
• Record all sections and parts using a CM7 (C major sev-
enth) chord.
• Record the parts on the MIDI channels listed below,
using the PSR-9000’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.
• 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 mes-
sage (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 measure).
• 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.
