Thanks AJ, I guess I will follow the suggestion from flowerssupply for now.

Can you try to incorporate these two features into the new OS please:

1-The Group function now only works well if the patterns use the same sounds, by putting patterns in the same group, it allows the instant change but it locks the sounds of each track. Can we have it to where if I put patterns into one group that I can have instant style change but at the same time sound change recognition still occurs?

2-In the EDIT PATTERN, it seems that there are certain limitations to what sounds can be assigned to which track. For example it appears that I cannot chose any drum kit I want to for DRUM2, and I cannot use the BASS track with a DRUMKKIT sound. I own a GEM and this is one cool feature where I can assign 5 drumkits to 5 differnet tracks I wanted to. Can this be done on the X1 to where we can put any sound or drumkit on any of the available tracks?

Thanks AJ

Flowerssuply thanks for your suggestion. I only had my X1 for less than a month now, let me ask this. If I setup one registration (I have not used them yet) to have a certain volume on the arranger and a certain mix of the different tracks, can I simply select that registration and be able to change sounds and styles without affecting the volume setup? In other words can a registration lock my arranger without locking my styles or sounds?

Thanks
