1. General Advice Since the OpenArt System was first introduced, the Styles have been changed and extended only slightly. The specifications of the OpenArt Arranger have not been fully incorporated into the Styles. Three Intros and Endings, 4 new Fills and a logical distribution of the ACC tracks were not provided. The original Arranger gave us particular problems with harmony recognition. The new Styles have extended the old Styles by providing the features mentioned above. This does not apply to the Realdrums which do not yet have the third Intro and Ending nor the four Fills. These have, however, been extended with new Accompaniment tracks. The new Styles have been given new names to reflect the better structure and make them easier to find. In section 3 you will find a list of all the Styles, with the new name matched against the old name. For the first time in the OpenArt System there is a complete Mapping of all the Factory Styles. Using Quickload you will see Styles in the Mapping which were not there before. The new, revised Styles are always placed in the first Mapping Levels. The non-revised Styles will be found in the higher numbered Mapping Levels. You will find a table showing all the Mappings in section 5. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 3
2. Activating the Package Instruction Manual Factory Styles 2011 Upon purchase of the software you will have received an Activation code, either by phone or e-mail. This code is for your instrument alone. Should you not yet have received the code, contact the company from which you bought the software, giving them the relevant numbers of your particular instrument available from its Activation Screen. 1. After installing the current OAS software, start your instrument and touch the SETTINGS tab. 2. Then touch the ACTIVATIONS button. The display shows all the available software which can be activated on your instrument and its current state of activation. Scrollbar Activations Screen 3. Select the Styles 2011 package. You can scroll down the list using the Scrollbar. 4. Touch "Activate Now" and the virtual typewriter appears on the display. Use that to input the Activation Code you have received. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 4
5. Type in the seven-figure Activation Code and touch ENTER. If the code is correct, the display will show that the activation has been successful. Confirm by touching OK. Now, by the side of the name Styles 2011 will be an indication that it is now activated, plus the Activation Code. It is advisable to make a note of all your activated codes in case of any problem. An example of what will appear: Styles 2011 - Activated (8909040) 6. You will need to restart your instrument and you will then be able to use the package with these operating instructions. Advice: When first starting-up after the activation, an important message is displayed. Section 3 contains important information about this. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 5
3. Information about the Styles 2011 3.1. Total Presets and Mappings Installing a New Mapping? The New Styles 2011 Package is now activated on your instrument. Would you like the corresponding Style Button Mappings to be overwritten by the new Mappings? (Reinstatement of the original Mappings or the new installation is possible at any time by going into Settings / OAS Database / Acc Button Mapping.) Yes No Please note: You will need to back up your own 'user' mappings before altering to the new Styles 2011 mappings as only the factory mappings are re-instated automatically when changing back to the original. (See chapter 13-1 'Data Backup' of the programmers manual) Advice: 1. If you touch "Yes", all your own Mappings will be replaced. 2. All Presets function normally. 3. Even if you decide here to touch "Yes", you can change the Mappings back to your own original set at any time. You will however have to restore your own user mappings from your back-up copy. 4. At a later time you could then change the Mappings back to the new version, and so on. If you have touched "Yes" to confirm you wish the new Mappings to be installed, a further message appears to indicate the installation of the new Mappings was successful. Your Total Presets are automatically converted to the new Mappings. In addition, the Style allocation within a Total Preset is independent of the Mapping. The Style within one Total Preset is fixed within the Total Preset. You will find a summary of the Mappings of the new Styles in section 5. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 6
3.2. Changing the Style-Mapping manually The Mapping of the Styles can be changed manually at any time. 1. Press one of the 14 Style Buttons for more than 4 seconds. The Style Mappings display opens. 2. Touch the on-screen button labelled "Manager". 3. Depending upon whether the new or the old Mappings are active, two possible messages can appear. Install Styles 2011 Mapping The previous Style Mappings are active. You can install the new Style Mappings to replace the previous Mappings by touching the button shown above. Uninstall Styles 2011 Mapping The new Styles 2011 Mappings are already active. You can return to the previous Style Mappings by touching the button shown above. This uninstalls the new Style Mappings. 3.3. Naming the Styles In developing this Revision of the Styles, they were sorted and new names provided to ensure that the "best Styles" would have the same numbering in the new Styles as they had in the original Styles. You will find a list of the old and new names in section 4. Advice: You may have Styles with another name in your Total Presets or from Music Archives. The new Style will, however, be the correct one even though the name may be different. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 7
4. List of the Factory Styles 2011 You will find two lists below, one for the Normal Styles and one for the Realdrums. The revised Styles have been highlighted with a colour and those not revised begin with an apostrophe. 4.1.

5.2. Mapping Xenios The Xenios model has 12 Accompaniment Buttons. Two of those are reserved for MIDI and Wave/MP3 and that leaves 10 Buttons for selecting the Styles. The following table provides a summary, similar to the previous tables for the Abacus, Verona, Scala and Louvre, showing how the Styles are distributed on the Xenios. Since the Xenios has four fewer Buttons than those models, not all Mapping Levels will be the same as those other models. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 28
5.3. Mapping Ikarus The Ikarus model has 12 Accompaniment Buttons. Two of those are reserved for MIDI and Wave/MP3 and that leaves 10 Buttons for selecting the Styles. The following table provides a summary, similar to the previous tables for the Abacus, Verona, Scala and Louvre, showing how the Styles are distributed on the Ikarus. Since the Ikarus has four fewer Buttons than those models, not all Mapping Levels will be the same as those other models. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 29
5.4. Mapping Digital Piano The Digital Piano model has 10 Buttons for selecting the Accompaniment. The following table provides a summary, similar to the previous tables for the Abacus, Verona, Scala and Louvre, showing how the Styles are distributed on the Digital Piano. Since the Digital Piano has four fewer Buttons than those models, not all Mapping Levels will be the same as those other models. English Translation Colin Moore, WersiClub International 30
