I have recently come across a program on the PC called JJazz Lab. This program is a similar to
Band in a Box but much more basic. I have tryed many Style Audutioning program but this one is very good.

Hers a few key points
--. It runs on Yamaha styles. You can create songs quickly using the style of your choice and the simple cord song sheet.
-- it is free open source , works on various style brands beyond Yamaha
--You can output the sound through the built in synth or connect it to your PSR by Midi therefore using your keyboards internal sound card.
--When audutioning styles you can create a chord progression with intro, variaition 1,2 etc, and quickly go through styles to find the one that best suits. it allows you to adjust mix and change instruments.
--It does not allow you to save changes to the style itself for export but it allows you to create a complete midi song
-- JJazz Lab calls styles..... Rhythms this can be confusung at first.
I would seem to me that with some colaboration with JJazz Lab and StylePlayer the desire for "Syle Preview through PC Speakers" could be acheived. It is possible now to copy a style fron StylePlayer download to JJazz Lab and audition it but this requires a few.
It would be great to a have a menu item in StylePlayer that would connect directly to JJazz Lab for play back withot having to hunt copy and paste the style.
