There is no direct way to convert a BiaB style to any arranger-keyboard style.
There is an indirect way to convert an arranger keyboard style to a BiaB style, I have done this on the following disks:
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style4.html#disk4 Korg i3
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style5.html#disk5 Korg i3
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style18.html Korg PA80
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style20.html Korg PA80
http://www.nortonmusic.com/style21.html Technics KN7000
(I plan on doing the Tyros as soon as I finish the PA80 and the KN7000. By the end of this month, I hope to release a new style disk based on the KN7000.)
The styles on these disks are similar, but not exact (check out the free mp3 demo files). Since there is no direct conversion and since BiaB "Thinks" about music differently from the auto-play (arranger) keyboards, it would be impossible to make a clone in BiaB.
Most arranger keyboards repeat 4 bars ad infinitum. I've taken advantage of the BiaB StyleMaker masks to input hundreds of similar patterns.
Unlike the arranger keyboards, BiaB knows what chord will be played next (since chord entry is done in advance) so the BiaB style can take advantage of that and make "intelligent" choices for a variety of musical context situations.
In the opposite direction........Going from BiaB to a keyboard I know nothing about, but from what I do know I don't think you could go that way and expect the same results either.
