Hi George,
yes, variation change by OT is a good thing. But very good it will be, user would have the possibility storing wether or not 'LEFT HOLD' and/or 'MELODY INTELLIGENCE' is used in their own OT's. (Like it is possible in case of Yamaha arrangers).
An important function of V 1.10 is 'Import VA7/76 and G1000 User Programs' I tested it and I found it works well.(of coarse with some modifications).
Regards
Hanspeter
