[2] CREATE STYLES USING AN EXTERNAL PC & MIDI SOFTWARE
It is possible to create a new style for the KETRON SD9 PRO electronic keyboard (OS 1.0) by first creating a
professional standard Midifile using an external PC sequencer (such as Cubase, Sonar, Logic ... etc) and then
importing this file into the instrument to be used as a style.
This tutorial covers the phases, formats and procedures needed to create a new style for the SD9 PRO.
KETRON STYLE FORMAT:- KETRON styles are composed of the following parts:- 4 Arrangements (A, B, C &
D), 4 Fill ins, 4 Breaks, 3 Intros and 3 Endings. In order to create a style, you will need to implement in one
Standard Midifile (format 0) all the parts mentioned above, separated by special markers.
Here are the rules that govern each of the style's parts:-
