PSR-S950 Song Styles
(Jan 2014) Here is my song style collection (156 SFF2 format styles) that I currently use on the PSR-S950. About half of these styles are for country songs from the past 20 years and the other half are older classic country songs. Some of the older song styles I have picked up from the internet and the forum and they may already be available elsewhere on the site, but I tweak just about every style I use. My custom song styles that I have created do not included any custom intros. I use Intro #1 and play the intro of the song. I have also included my Christmas set and Elvis set of styles as well.
Regards,
Drake

Additional Styles for the S950
(Apr 5, 2024) I have completed converting 261 of the newer Genos 2 styles to work in my PSR-S950 keyboard.
10 African Styles (Feb 2020) Here are some African styles that Bogdan shared with us from his SX700 expansion pack. I re-worked the three styles that had the missing drum pack. I also added OTS to all 10 of the styles based on the 3 styles that had not been tampered with by Bogdan. They all work fine in my S950 now.
Genos Superior Styles (Dec 2019) Here are 34 of the (Genos) styles that Peter fixed the drums to sound correct on a Tyros5. I tweaked them to work on my PSR-S950 and I am sharing them with you. I also included the list Peter provided as to what song the styles fit.
Cumbia Latin - (Apr 2017) Yamaha released a free S770 keyboard pack forstyles. I revoiced them for use in my S950. These 28 styles should now all work in S970, T5 and Genos as well.
Salsa Styles - (Aug 2017) Yamaha released a Salsa Voice and Expansion pack that was provided free for a limited time. A forum member extracted the styles and Drake was able to tune and modify these styles to work on the PSR-S950. Certainly not a perfect duplication of the expansion pack styles, since the pack has unique voices included. However, you may find many of these very satisfactory.
(Aug 2015) Below are 30 "Church and Christmas" styles that I tweaked so they use standard Yamaha voices found on the S950 keyboard. I also have 20 of the "Mexican Banda" styles I was able to convert for use in the S950 keyboard using standard voices and drum kits. Styles in the Celtic packs are pretty much using Standard voices in the style and just a few of the OTS voices needed to be changed. The 5 Celtic styles were the tricky ones that needed tweaking to the style due to a new drum kit used for those styles. The "Best of Europe" is a collection of various styles from the Celtic, Latin, Balkan & Oriental regions. The Mariachi and Norteno styles from Mexico contains three different categories of musical genres: the Mariachi, the Norteno and the TexMex that is influenced by the Norteno, but uses more contemporary instrumentation, a little more sophisticated harmony and syncopated drums. The "Country Musician" set contains the 10 styles from the T5 converted for use in the S950 keyboard.
(Aug 2016) Drake converted 40 Balkan styles for use in the PSR-S910. He then converted these styles to use the voices in his S950. Those conversions are included in the table below.
| Church Christmas.zip 30 styles |
Mexican Banda.zip 20 styles |
Celtic NEurope.zip 40 styles |
| BestOfEurope.zip 40 styles |
Mariachi Norteno.zip 20 styles |
CountryMusician.zip 10 styles |
| BalkanStyles.zip 40 styles |
Note: Thanks to Ted for converting a number of Drake's conversions to the SFF1 format so they can be used on the PSR-S900/Tyros2 and earlier keyboards. You will find Ted's conversions on the S900 Styles page.
Roland G70 Conversons
(Aug 2015) Thanks to Drake for sending in a set of Roland G70 conversions that he found on the internet. There are 249 styles availalbe in a single RolandG70.zip file.
Styles for the PSR-2000
(Sep 2010) Joe, I finished checking and updating all the files. These are converted Tyros2, Tyros3, S900 and S910 styles, tweaked using the MidiPlayer (by Michael Bedesem) and the Style ReMixer (by Jorgen Sorensen).
I changed volume settings for all the styles. I started this project in 2007 using T2 styles and, as newer styles have been added at PSR Tutorial, I added just the new styles from each of those keyboards. I have not changed many of the OTS settings which were with the original style.
For any style too large to play on the PSR-2000, I created two files for the style. The first has Intros and Endings for A&B, the second has the Intro and Ending C. In a few styles the C Intro and Ending were still to large for the PSR-2000. I then replaced the C Ending with the shorter A Ending of the style.
Some styles used a drummer not available on the PSR-2000. I found and used another drum section of the style to fill in or I silenced the drummer. When this method could not fix the drummer problem, I omitted that style.
The set contains over 500 different styles and fits on 22 disks. The styles are grouped in zip files by category below and show the number of disks required to hold all the styles. (In Nov, 2010, Drake added 35 styles converted from the "T4-4-T3" conversions for use on the PSR-2000.)
