Although I have had my new CVP705 for more than a year, I went into the musicfinder for the first time this week only to find it had no records in it!
I see no point in downloading the usual Yamaha MFD with disguised titles. I see the list on the tutorial only goes to the CVP600 series. Does anyone have a corrected or expanded MFD that will work on my CVP705?

Yamaha stopped 'disguising' the song titles in their MFDs for recent MOTL/TOTL models years ago. For example the MFD that I downloaded from Yamaha back in 2011 for my Tyros4 was not disguised!

If you download the file for your '705 from Yamaha, you will see it has 1702 records, all of which show the correct song title!

On my CVP 605 I see 214 pages when I open Music Finder. On my CVP 709 I see 252 pages.
And as you know x 8 MFDs in each window/page. All with real names.

The files differ between the models and certain songs also. When you load the MFDs they use tailormade combinations for each instrument. Mostly good, sometimes not OK, and occationally terrible. So if you have the time and interest you can alter the styles to your liking.

It’s possible to load MFDs from 605 into 709 but they may use different instruments and settings.
It’s not possible to do the opposite - load 709s MFD files into the 605.

I dowloaded these files from Yamahas homepage after I bought the instruments and have modified a few of them.

I asked a question here a while ago if anyone had additional files for my CVPs, but got no answer.
I find this section a bit sleepy - unfortunately.

Thanks Ian,
You cannot see the files until you load them so I did not know that they had updated titles. But I will now download the file from the Yamaha website  and load it into the CVP.
Have to say it seems odd that the MFD was not loaded into the instrument before shipping but I should be able to take care of it myself.
Thanks again.
Mike

Bob Fowler:
Could musicfinderview be used to convert mfd files between the 605 and 709?
