Dano, I think you totally are missing my question.

I am using Patterns on my X1.

When I turn on my X1, the LHS volume is set to 63. I set it to 53 and I do the SAVE/ENTER under a registration. When I pull that particular registration up after turning on the X1, the LHS volume (the volume of the entire arranger section) does go to 53...BUTTTTT as soon as I pick another pattern, it goes back up to 63 and stays there regardless of which pattern I chose.

How do I make my arranger section volume stay at 53 for the LHS?

thanks Dano and all
