Hi Mosiqaar,
Good idea that you came up with this thread! Ketron would surely score a lot of points with their costumers if they elegantly decide to continue putting efforts in upgrading the OS and in getting some details fixed.
Personally I would like very much to have one of the XD features implemented in the "old" X series: the "new" manual bass (manual bass along with all the other style parts). I had this feature in an old and basic Casio arranger, many years ago and I miss it so much... This feature really fits my playing style, as it probably fits a lot of other players' styles out there.
I would also like to see a better working Harmony feature, and the elimination of some harmonizer anomalies. I don't know how deeply these fixes would interfere with the instrument basic concepts, but it would be important to give them some attention.
As to your sugestions, I agree it would be very useful to have the possibility of combining individual new sounds in one SND set. Imagine that one needs three sounds from three different sound banks. One can load one of them in RAM, another in the optional flash card, but there's no way (so i think...) to load a third sound from a third sound bank...
As to the flash card I never had reliability problems with mine...
Of course, you can include my name when you forward our sugestions to Ketron.
