Playing Styles from Floppy Disks

The TYROS can play back style files contained on the floppy disk.
Because the TYROS is compatible with the Style File format, the TYROS can directly play back style files
contained on commercially available floppy disks bearing the Style File logo (page 8). The TYROS can also
play back the disk style files created via various Yamaha keyboards such as the CVP-209/207/205/203/201,
PSR-2000/1000, PSR-8000, PSR-9000, and 9000Pro.

2
Press any of the STYLE buttons, then press the [NEXT] button to
select the FD drive and display the files contained on the floppy
disk.

From this display, you can change the voice
used by the style. Select the desired voice in

Quick Guide
• It may be necessary to wait for a
while in step #3 until the TYROS
can start the style, since it takes
some time to read the style data
from the floppy disk.
