Well, u need to have an USB midi interface, for 1. W/o it, you're kind of in dutch. You'll also need to know which portions of the jacks & connectors are midi in & midi out. Opposites attract, as it were, so plug the midi in of the interface to the midi out of your tyros, & vice versa. U may need to turn local control off. You'll need to select the port in qws for all tracks, as I showed u earlier, & u may need to set the tyros to a specific bank, which I can't help with since I don't have 1.
I've listened to your stuff, btw, & I like it. U should consider getting a domain name, & putting up clips & a shopping cart for folks to purchase your songs.
