Hey,
New here. I d/led the Bonus Playlist, unzipped and saved the folder to my thumb drive. Is there a way you actually import the Reg files instead?
Also, another noob question. What exactly is Music Finder? Is it a program I would generally use?
Hi Jalor,
welcome to the PSR Tutorial Forum!
You can use the Registrations
directly from the USB stick:- On the DGX-670, press the Registration Memory [
BANK] button to call up the Registration Bank Selection display.
- Select the
USB1 tab.
- Navigate to the desired folder and select the desired Bank file by using the Cursor buttons.
- Press one of the green-lit Registration Memory buttons (1 - 4) to load one of the Registrations contained in the currently loaded Registration Bank. (In Registration Banks of Bonus Playlists (and Playlists from imported MusicFinder files) there is only ONE Registration (each on button #1).
The "
Music Finder" is a function of earlier Yamaha keyboards (up to the Tyros5), which is based on the
OTS (One Touch Settings) of the Styles used.
Each Style file contains (usually) 4 OTS. A single OTS is something like a "stripped down" Registration. (You can save considerably more parameters in a Registration than in an OTS. For details, please see the "Parameter Chart" in the
Data List of your keyboard.)
When the Music Finder function is switched on, OTS LINK and SYNC START are automatically activated on the relevant (earlier) keyboard. By selecting a specific song title (called "Record") in the Music Finder display:
- a certain Style is loaded,
- the Tempo is set to match the song,
- a certain INTRO is activated, if nessassary,
- a certain Style Main Variation is activated,
- a certain OTS is activated, which then automatically makes the panel settings (e.g. keyboard voices, part volumes, multi pad selection).
Since, as I said, Music Finder Records are always linked to the OTS of the Styles used, it was time for an "update". Since the introduction of the Genos, there is now the Playlist function instead of the Music Finder. Here you have a lot more options, as Playlists are no longer based on OTS but on
Registrations.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Chris
