What is the workaround for having 7/8, 7/4 5/4, 5/8 styles in yamaha psr e463 especially since the keyboard doesn't have a style creator (it has a groove creator thoough). I required it urgently for an event. I have heard that it has a "style engine" which doesn't support 7/8? I believe that the groove creator can't be used for such a purpose, am i right? Is there any workaround with recording it as a song? Since there is a record function in it. I tried free .STY files (mostly sff1 is unavailable on the internet for free) and the ones which i found doesn't seem to sound properly and have timing issue.

The PSRE series doesn't have style creator, no; but if you've got someone with access to a PSRs/sx/Genos (any pro series) they could create a 7/8 style for you; however, you'd still need to convert to style format 1 (the pro arrangers have been style format 2 since 2009, and they're not compatible, although Jørgen Sørensen at http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/
Note that if you have a friend with a yamaha arranger prior to 2009, like the PSRa1000, you won't need to convert the styles to sff1 as they will already be in that format
has created a program specifically for this (style format converter)
Not having anyone handy to create the style for you; you could also go online and search for them; note that the 7/8, 9/8 styles in particular would probably be in Turkish, Arabic and Greek style packs.
