Hello everyone!
If I have a 6/8 style I can use from other 4/4 style parts of it and will syncronize to 6/8 bar or cause the chaos.
The text was created with a translator I can not speak English hopefully it is understandable
Greetings Peter

From my music teaching I can't say it is not possible.
4/4 means four notes of 1/4 in one measure.
6/8 means six notes of 1/8 in one measure.
so if you paly with the 6/8 style the counting will absolutely wrong when you play 4/4 or otherwise.

Well 6/8 and 4/4 are more closely related than you might think. 12/8 and 4/4 are virtually interchangeable, and so 6/8 is pretty closely related to 2/4, which is like a half bar of 4/4. For this reason Yamaha seem to use 4/4 as a fundamental unit in many of the styles labelled 12/8 and 6/8 and so it might not be the mess that you think - just try it. You can't do any harm.

I have modified 4/4 style in 6/8 only for Tyros and Genos.
You could try these.

I think if you say this to a choir master he is looking immediately grey.
You can count not a 6/8 into a 4/4. You going a few steps further. But even a 6/8 measure is not a 2/4 measure, and it is not a half bar 4/4. It seems so, but you can't play it that way. What are you gonna do with note's that are bound between the measure's. Looking forward to your solution.
If you doing this in a band, it's gonna be a great mess.

6/8 is two triplets, 12/8 is 4 triplets. They are very similar to 2/4 and 4/4. If you look at the Yamaha styles you will find some are called six eight or twelve eight but the actual styles are 4/4.
Time signatures are as much about imparting feel and making it easy to read as counting beats. Other than that of course 2/4 could be written in a 4/4 format. It may not impart the correct rhythmic feel but it would be perfectly playable.
