Because of the way Tyros treats effects (reverb, chorus, etc). Some times I can't directly address Tyros 4 port 1, it is greyed out, I must select Tyros port 2, then Port 1 becomes available (Tyros 4 port 2 is for external MIDI control, it has no face panel controls to modify MIDI input, they must be included in MIDI file as CC events). I have to manually set them to MIDI and to the proper channel, which then means resetting each catagory, and patch again. It has also switched instrument to dynamic MIDI mode, rather than static. If you choose parameters in wrong order, all previously set up information is lost, and you start over.Īfter I import the MIDI, SFP has switched most of the instruments over shared rack again. If you don't use that procedure, you will get the wrong results. The point is SFP expects to see some operations with several parameters, done only in one particular sequence, which is not specified (to my knowledge). Since SFP has device list, and gets MSB/LSB/Prog it should recognize the instrument automatically, instead of me doing them one by one. I can then select that in the instrument category. But since they are name only, and no corresponding #, I must refer to Logic or T4 face panel again, and note the name something like 'S articulation2 Ballad Soprano'. On the left hand side, I select the instrument again, this time, the instrument name appears, surrounded by a box - finally I see my instrument choices. I then select the instrument, is is whited out, still no instruments to choose from.

I then am present with list of all banks in Tyros (hundreds of them) I select something like Bank 120 - 004. I then reselect MIDI, which wipes out all information for each instrument previously set up. It shouldn't change after I have already selected it.Īfter file is imported, most instruments have switched over to shared rack. In SFP, the Instrument section is blank, until I again select the category,Īfter I have done all this SFP has decided to go and reclassify the all instrument presets by itself from static to, monophonic, bass simple, sustained etc. I refer to Tyros 4 face panel to insure I get the right instrument. I go over to instrument section, and select the proper category of instrument. It will display instruments not related to what is in that bank. By referring to Logic or T4 face panel, I then set each MSB/LSB bank,, by finding MSB/LSB bank (000-64, 120-4 etc). In device list, I select Tyros 4, then go to import box.I import a 16 channel midi file, I set all instruments to STATIC. I want to import a midi file with MSB/LSB/Prog.
