Hi Nobby: I think you have hit upon the reason you are having problems & frustrations with your PSR2000 in your FIRST sentence. The word is: REGISTRATION MEMORY!

The 'registration bank' file is the essential component used to keep everything (all other files) together. It's like the foundation & frame of your house. It holds up and links together all the other parts (style, sounds, multipads).

Here's how I set things up on my PSR2000 keyboard. I initially created file folder directories & sub directories in the 'Registration Bank' USER area. On the top hierarachal level I created folders by music genre: Big Band & Jazz, Classic Pop, Pop-Rock-Soul, Country, Latin, World, Show, Holiday. I then created sub folders within each of these folders with titles like (in the Latin folder): Jobim, Spanish, Cuban, Salsa, etc. Creating a file organization system from the beginning will pay off later as the number of custom Registrations quickly grows. I always create (and store) a Registration Memory for just about every song I play. This way I can then easily go back to customize it further as needed. It is EASY to do and just takes a second to store the setup in (at least) one of the 8 panel button memories. Once you do this, you can easily recall that setup anytime you want by just pressing the Registration Bank button 'J' on the MAIN page as soon as you first fire the keyboard up. This will instantly take you to the Registration USER Bank page where you can quickly select the Registsration Memory Song of your choice. VERY cool I think. You could also save a 'default' Registration Memory in the first USER 'Registration Bank' slot if you choose. This way you can save 8 of your favorite styles/settings in Registration Memory 1-8. As you can see, there is a lot of flexibility for customizing your PSR keyboard to YOUR indiviual needs and tastes. Also, don't worry about Registration Banks using up too much file space. You can store up to 800 files and folders in the PSR2000's USER memory. I already have over 20 customized Registration Memory songs stored and I've only had my keyboard for less than two weeks now. Of course you can easily backup the contents of USER Memory to a floppy if run out of space, But I really doubt that you will be creating 800 song files to quickly. - Scott
