PSR-SX900/SX700/SX600 / Re: Have a few gigs under my belt with the SX900
« Last post by Jeff_M on Today at 01:17:59 AM »
If anyone has experience with both the SX900 and Genos;

1)  I was wondering if playing live gigs is easier with one vs the other? 
2)  Is the SX900 a little easier to learn if this is my first yamaha arranger?
3)  Lastly, does the SX900 have enough memory/storage to have 50 to 100 songs in your list?

1) Lighter weight, easier to transport. 
2) Don't know, having never owed a Genos
3) I have over 200 songs on my list and have used less than 25% of the memory.

Trying to play Roland TD-12 electric drums but trigger Yamaha Genos 2 drums (using Cubase as a host for both the E-Drums and Genos).

I can easily make a dedicated drum map, but I know it's going to be complex on the Hi Hats. Has anyone done it yet?

The Genos is bigger and heavier than the SX900. How good is your back and how big is your car?

Both keyboards can read a USB card. So the number of songs there is no limit.

Unfortunately that can't be done on an iMac
Those .- files don't show up on a thumb drive when accessed by Mac

I don't have a Mac, but files with a dot at the beginning are hidden files on UNIX-like operating systems. These hidden files can usually be made visible. For macOS I found the following:

You can toggle hidden files on and off by holding down the three keys

shift-command-period

at the same time in any Finder window. This setting will apply across all your Finder windows.

I hope that this is of any help.

Genos2 / Re: New firmware 1.04 Genos2
« Last post by sh on Yesterday at 06:52:08 PM »
But there is no a priori reason the style dynamic control
should not be savable in a registration. 
All the other knob and slider values can be saved
in registrations. I very much would like to see this fixed
via a firmware update: save style dynamics control
in a registration.

I can only second that. It may well be that others have different workflows but at least for me using registrations heavily with complex songs and simultaneous singing I can't change the dynamics during my performance. It would be nice if others would simply accept that instead of defending Yamaha or assuming that this functionality is "meant to be that way".

Also, for the sliders, I would be more than happy if the behaviour could be changed (as an option) as follows:
  • if no style is running the value should be taken from the current position of the slider immediately
  • if a style is running the user should decide via setting if the value need to be "catched" or simply taken from the current position (Genos 1 behaviour)

For me, this would save me a lot of unneccessarily moving the sliders during sound creation most of the time.

I hope that Yamaha is listening to their loyal users and enhance an already incredible instrument even further.

Ron,

  For a Windows PC this is kind of easy as I described and the method I used to blow away all mine.

  I am not a MAC person so can't help there.

  Here is another method that can be used and now I am speaking Android phone. Maybe IPhone can do the same. A trick I use as well.  Connect a USB or a Cloud Folder to the phone. Then in my case I use the resident Samsung File Manager to do a particular search. Example no quotes this time just   ._
  Once the file is presented to you simply display the details of the file and the path/file location will be presented to you. Once you have that, then connect what ever source you are using to your PC  Windows/MAC and go to that folder, find the file(s) and delete.

     Hope this helps.  Note you can never go wrong with Chris's recommendations and solutions.

        Good Luck!          dom

Glad you found a solution, Hammer.

Unfortunately that can't be done on an iMac

Those .- files don't show up on a thumb drive when accessed by Mac

I eliminated the unwanted files on the keyboard but that was time consuming so I just stroll through to the good files.

Perhaps someone can suggest a go around ...

Hi Ron,

Please follow the links in >>> my post above. There are several apps for macOS to prevent such ".-" index files from being copied to the USB stick or to clean the stick of such files, e.g. the "BlueHarvest" app.


Best regards,
Chris
