thanks for the tips/ideas. I believe everything is OK:

1) I am using only KN-7000-saved files
2) I am using the SD button to load/save SD data
3) The FROM and TO boxes are there, labelled as you say, but the data portion (inside the boxes) has nothing but dashes.
4) I tried the same experiments with SAVE and LOAD to/from Floppy, with same results. So it's not just the medium that is the problem, apparently.

Again, I am saving ONLY panel memory data in all previous cases.

As a further test, I did a new SAVE in which I saved two types of data: PANEL MEMORY and SOUND data. From this saved file, I can do a LOAD, Page 3 and use the MODE button to load either Panel Memory or Sounds (bank or single). However, if I then save ONLY the Panel Memory data, then try Load, Page 3, I get the boxes with dashes, and the "up/down" buttons (do not function).

So, if I have a file with ONLY panel memory data, things don't work; if I have a file with Panel Memory and Sound data, things work as expected.

Another side note - this whole process (saving ONLY panel memory, and Loading-Page 3) has worked fine for years on my KN-6000.


So, seems there is a "bug" in my KN-7000.

Thanks again for the ideas for me to make sure I'm doing things right ...
