Hi Guys,

Thanks for your responses. Firstly, when I record a song in Sequencer, I use PANEL MEMORY BANK A. I do not use any of the Banks 1 through 10 for sequenced work. When I save a song on SD card, I save the following only: CURRENT PANEL, PANEL MEMORY 3BANK, (Not All Panel Memory) SEQUENCER and EFFECT MEMORY. I know that some of you do as Bob does and save work done in COMPOSER, SOUND MEMORY and PERFORMANCE PADS as well as the others that I save. Bob knows that I get my styles from the CUSTOM STYLES that I have created and not from COMPOSER. I purposefully do not get involved with saving SOUND MEMORY on each song and here is why: Say that I have done a song six months ago and during the last six months, I have created several new sounds. If I bring up a six-month old song saved with the Sound Memories that I had at that time and start to play live, a song that has later custom sounds in Sound Memory, they won’t be there for my use. I try not to get involved with saving SOUND MEMORY. I save SOUND MEMORY only when I have created new sounds to add to what I already have that have been saved. The sounds are always there. If for some reason that they are not, I reload them again from the card.

Rog, I always work with EXPAND MEMORY MODE. Everything is set to ON other than MIDI, which is OFF.

Bob, I am probably wrong but I assume when saving CUSTOM PANEL, it is saving BANKS A, B, C as well as saving BANKS 1 through 10. Is this not correct? Before I ever tried using CUSTOM PANEL and had all my Panel Memories set as I wanted, I would always save them on the SD Card by saving only ALL PANEL MEMORY.

I might add to the aforementioned – when saving SOUND MEMORY, ALL PANEL MEMORY and CUSTOM STYLES, I save each as a single file. This brings them up quickly. I seldom get involved with CUSTOM STYLES unless I have another 20 styles that are different. CUSTOM STYLES is the only file that takes more time to load or is from my experience.

I’m hoping all of what I have said is understandable. Many of you on the forum are much more advanced than I am with some of these technical issues.

In closing, I might add that what I found strange with these changes is in RIGHT2, they were all changed to BIG BAND BRASS, which is in SOUND EXPLORER. I find this very odd.
