jm_bogey: How long does it take on your KN6000 when loading just the 'style (.cmp) file' only? Technics (by default) groups & loads all other related files (panel memory, MSP, sequencer, sound memory, etc) as well, which lengthens load time substantially. For a TRUE comparison, set your KN6000 to load ONLY the "style (.cmp)" file. As my memory recalls, load time is about the SAME as my Yamaha PSR2000 (almost instant). - Scott
