Hi Chris,
Are you sure? I only have the Tyros 5 - 61, but I can't find the butter strings on page 5 or on any other page.
I tried to save another pad file as VCE. Without success. In my case a pad remains a pad (without change).

Hi Peter,
could it be that you are talking about MULTI PADS here? A Multi Pad file (= a Multi Pad Bank) can of course NOT be saved as a Voice Set file.
But you can easily create a so-called "User Voice", i.e. a Voice Set file, for every "Voice" shown in the Voice Selection display (either by copying and pasting the relevant Preset Voice into the User drive, to the internal hard disk or a USB stick. Incidentally, a Voice Set file does NOT always have the file extension ".VCE", but the extension depends on the Voice
type (see the list below).
With Copy & Paste (as just described) the relevant Preset Voice Set file is copied
1: 1, i.e. the Voice called up above sounds exactly like the Preset Voice in question.
Of course, you can also change a Voice as you wish (in the Mixing Console or in the "Voice Set"). To save this edited Voice as a User Voice (= Voice Set file), use the "Save" option in the VOICE SET. (Alternatively, you can of course simply save all changes to the Voices of Keyboard Parts in
Registrations.)
By the way: Voice Set files ("User Voices") can only be used to call up Voices in
Keyboard Parts (Right 1-3, Left). If you were to use a User Voice file to revise Style, Multi Pad or MIDI file parts, only the underlying PRESET-VOICE would be called, but the
actual Voice Set data from the User Voice file would be
ignored.
You can find the Preset Voice "ButterStrings", as mentioned, in the PANEL VOICE folder "PAD" on page 5. There are several ways to call this folder, e.g.:
- Press the Voice Category button "PAD" (between the "ACCORDION" and "SYNTH" buttons) and then go to page 5 (P5).
or
- Open the Voice Selection Display by pressing one of the display buttons
F,
G,
H or
I (or the relevant PART SELECT buttons) (twice if necessary). Be sure you are in the PRESET tab! Press "
UP" (= upper button "8") until you are in the
top folder level. Now select the "PAD" folder and go to page 5 (P5).
Note: There is also a "PAD" folder inside the "LEGACY" Voice folder. There you will of course NOT find the Voice "ButterStrings" ...
Here is the list of the different extensions of Voice Set files (= User Voice files):
.vce = Regular
.liv = Live!
.clv = Cool!
.swv = Sweet!
.nlv = S.Art!
.sar = S.Art!
.sa2 = S.Art2!
.mgv = MegaVoice
.org = Organ Flutes
.drm = Drums
.ldr = Live!Drums
.sfx = SFX kit
.lsf = Live!SFX kit
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Chris
