Larry...
I am glad you have found a way to set up the 2000 that satisfies you..and it does sound like a workable system for you. A little more complex for me, as I will explain.

I was under the impression that as many as 250 registrations(style, tempo and key changes) could be saved to one disk.

Why is that important to me? I sometimes work as a single..and, other times, as a duo with one of two girl singers I use. Each of us sing many of the same songs, but in different keys, and sometimes even different tempos. It is impossible to remember who sings what in which key. With the 740 I made disks for each of us and have a master list of songs with the registration number next to each song. For voices, if I want more than the OTS a style provides, I program two I like into the Right and Left, adjust the volumes, tweak, etc and save it to the song's registration. That gives me my two, plus the 4 in OTS. Plus I have a couple voice numbers memorized and can get to them on the fly.

It doesn't matter who is singing as long as I have my master song list and their disk loaded...the registration codes for each song is the same for all of us. The difference is in the individual changes I have made to each person's disk.

Yes, limitation of only 3 user styles in the 740 is a definite downside and really slows things down when I need to load a style to accomodate a request.

But, the documentation I read on the 2000 led me to believe I could save anything I needed to disk.

There is no doubt the 2000 sounds better once I get a song set up. I am just looking for a way to save each individual setting to disk and take advantage of its lightning fast loading speed without having to adjust tempos and keys before I can start a song.

Sorry if I sound a little frustrated here. I love the 2000 dearly, but don't feel I have a good enough command of the instrument to take it on a gig yet...and am hopeful I can find a way to accomplish the tasks mentioned above.

I will try your system though and see if I can adjust to it. Thanks for your input.
