I want to transfer some MIDI files from my PC to the internal memory of my Yamaha EZ-200 keyboard, in order to learn to play those pieces using the keyboard's Learning Mode. I connected the keyboard. Welcome Tudor, I hope that you feel free to return to our group for whatever question you may have! An attempt to teach keyboard lessons for Indian film music.

Hi, Please can you help with advice? I have tried to record MIDI files from Yamaha PSR 3000 in Cubase 5, connected via 'USB to host', but I haven't able to done that. I have installed on notebook actual Yamaha driver, Win7/ 64 and Cubase 5.

When I play on Yamaha, signal is visible in Cubase, but when i turn on MIDI files from Yamaha, signal of MIDI not visible in Cubase. I assumed that I have wrong settings in Yamaha or Cubase, or connected via USB to host not allowed me to transfer MIDI to CUBASE. Maybe another cable can help - Midi IN/OUT-USB, or just Line OUT (phones or AUX or OUT) ->line IN in PC?

So, I would like to find out if should be possible with some special settings in Yamaha PSR3000 and Cubase, or another way of cable connecting: 1. Transfer/record MIDI files from Yamaha PSR 3000 to Cubase (Not playing keyboard, just record completed simply MIDI files); 2. If possible to using MIC/Line exit for record audio track in Cubase? I assumed and hope that once MIDI will visible in Cubase that also Microphone (which is connected via Yamaha PSR 3000) will be available for using and recording in Cubase? Thank you for any advice/Print screen for correct settings, cable for this issue. I have quasi-similar problem - Yamaha PSR s710+Cubase 5LE. Usb connection when I import any midi to make edits - it plays piano only with 120bpm ->no cc, pc and tempo data from midi file are read (and all are presented in midi tracks when I open list editor).

I tried to find solution in cubase 'preferences', 'midi devices' (but my keyboard is not listed there) - all forums say - use virtual instruments - BUT I LIKE sounds from my keyboard, and I want cubase to send midi-data back to my keyboard only!!!.once I took my keyboard 2my friend, he has old cubase vst32 - we plugged keyboard, (it was recognized OK) we imported midi file and all played perfectly without any problem. I miss 'logical editor' from that version, very useful one. I can`t find it in my 5LE version but most important is - how to hear sounds from my PSR s710 ( as saved in midi tracks including pc-cc-tempo) when I want to play midi file from cubase 5LE yes. I 'see' my PSR as 'Digital Piano'-unit exactly same way as it is listed by my friends old version vst32 - but my 5LE doesn`t send any pc-cc-tempo to it. Thks for help. I have no more idea where check, what change to get it right.

I need to open(import) midi file into cubase, then do edits on 'how it sounds at PSR710', -then export to midi and play directly with right sounds, volumes, effects as I edited - but 2 do it - I need to hear 'what I`m doing' during edits, =>cubase must send all to PSR710 as it is with all PC, CC, to check if I get right sound proportions and more DIRECTLY from PSR710 machine.

Hello everyone, I want to transfer some MIDI files from my PC to the internal memory of my Yamaha EZ-200 keyboard, in order to learn to play those pieces using the keyboard's Learning Mode. I connected the keyboard to my PC using a USB-MIDI cable, following the in-to-out out-to-in convention for the MIDI ports. The settings of Yamaha 'MusicSoft Downloader' (the software used to copy files from a PC to a Yamaha keyboard) displays the connection as a 'USB Audio Device', however I cannot browse the keyboard's internal memory in order to copy MIDI files over. This is without having installed any drivers yet, and without Windows prompting me to install anything upon connecting the keyboard to the PC.

I then downloaded and installed the Yamaha USB-MIDI driver (however it says that no keyboard is connected. This driver is, however, meant to be used with a different cable than mine (although the two cables seem to be essentially the same (1 USB port to 2 MIDI ports). Was anyone able to make such a connection to an older keyboard? I am wondering whether getting this Yamaha 'UX16 USB-MIDI Interface' cable would enable the software to access my keyboard's internal memory. I know the EZ200 *is* capable of having files copied to it, because it appears in MusicSoft Downloader's list of models! On the other hand, though, the keyboard appears to not have an internal memory, as there is no Record feature on it. Any help with this would be tremendously appreciated!

Will your Yamaha read files from a USB flash drive? Years ago when I had a Yamaha keyboard, it could read floppy disks. I would create my song on Band-in-a-Box, save as a type 1 MIDI file, do some editing with a software sequencer, save as a type 0 MIDI file (that was the only kind the stone-age Yamaha could read) and use Windows Explorer to drag the type 0 MIDI file to a floppy disk. Then I'd use the floppy to load into the Yamaha.

If your keyboard can read files on a USB flash drive, this could work for you. (And a newer keyboard might even be able to read type 1 MIDI files) Notes. Hi Eddie and Richard, Thanks for your replies! You are right in that my question does not at all relate to any PG software products. However, when searching for a solution to this problem, I found a similar post on this forum by a user who had a slightly different problem, and who advised me to post here, since there might be keyboard players who have experienced a similar dillema and who might be able to help. I thought the 'off-topic' section of the forum would be.

Off-topic enough for a random question like that I hope that's ok. Best wishes, Tudor #177596 - 10/31/12 10:39 AM [Off-Topic] Re: Transferring MIDI files from the PC to a Yamaha keyboard [] Veteran Registered: 04/08/11 Posts: 3848 Loc: Cleveland, Ohio.

I should also mention that I asked this question on more relevant forums (e.g. The Yamaha forum, and keyboardforums.com), and received no helpful replies.

The EZ200 doesn't, unfortunately, have any other connections aside from those 2 MIDI ports, so transfering MIDI files that way would be the only option. I was suggested to use a different cable (this one:, however at this point I am really doubtful the keyboard knows how to handle external MIDI files, much less store them inside its internal memory! #177599 - 10/31/12 10:45 AM [Off-Topic] Re: Transferring MIDI files from the PC to a Yamaha keyboard [] Newbie Registered: 10/31/12 Posts: 5. Eddie: in my case, the software that allows drag&dropping MIDIs from the PC to the keyboard would be Yamaha Software, called MusicSoft Downloader, however it does not recognise the USB-MIDI connection, and cannot access the keyboard's internal memory. If this turn out not to work in the end, I'll probably sell the Yamaha EZ200 and get a Casio LK-280, which *is* meant to take in files, as it has an USB connection, and also has the lighted keys that allow easy visual learning of the piano pieces. Thanks again for your help. #177600 - 10/31/12 10:46 AM [Off-Topic] Re: Transferring MIDI files from the PC to a Yamaha keyboard [] Veteran Registered: 04/08/11 Posts: 3848 Loc: Cleveland, Ohio.

I really doubt the cable is the issue. If you can communicate events to play notes, you should be able to communicate sysex data transfers. 5 pins is 5 pins.

I can tell you all about Ensoniq, including company history, but I don't know Yamaha keyboards at all. Does your synth even have a sequencer? Once again, MIDI is MIDI. Internal, external, extraterrestrial. MIDI is MIDI.

If the board is capable, there is a way to move stuff from A to B, and that 'way' is called sysex (system exclusive). If your board can send and receive sysex data, you are home free. Your manual will address that. >>.I want to transfer some MIDI files from my PC to the internal memory of my Yamaha EZ-200 keyboard.>>>I googled the EZ 200 quickly and it seems this model does not have internal memory. On my Yamaha DGX, the songs that come installed are completely inaccessible.

They cannot be moved or copied. >>.The settings of Yamaha 'MusicSoft Downloader' (the software used to copy files from a PC to a Yamaha keyboard) displays the connection as a 'USB Audio Device', however I cannot browse the keyboard's internal memory.>>>>I beleive that's the way Yamaha intend it to work. On my keyboard the Yam software enabled copying between a PC and an SD memory card. Very difficult to use. >>.This driver is, however, meant to be used with a different cable than mine.>>>I would not be at all surprised if Yam made it so that only their won cable will work.

Are you able to have the keyboard play songs from a program on your PC? I can play a song in Band in a Box and have the Yam produce the sounds. Are you able to do that? From what I can see this should be allowed, but you may need the Yam cable to do it. >>.I know the EZ200 *is* capable of having files copied to it, because it appears in MusicSoft Downloader's list of models!>>>Try downloading a manual for this instrument and see what it says. Okay, you may need to define 'files'.

'Files' as in banks of presets that replace the factory presets, or 'files' as in sequences? Huge difference there. I still have a Yamaha FB-01 module from the 80s that would accept custom designed sounds via sysex, but it had no sequencer. The banks of sounds are 'files' too. I suspect you have something similar going on here.

Nothing says that you can't PLAY those sequences from another storage and playback device. That would come down to the capability of your synthesizer, i.e. How many voices is it. If it's an 8 voice, you are splitting those 8 voices between different instruments playing back on your tracks. Again deferring to those more schooled on Yamaha, is his model higher end or lower end? If it has no sequencer, I assume it's the latter, particularly knowing how long ago onboard sequencers became the standard issue.
