Saving Styles from PA3x and using them on PA4x

Hi
Would it be possible to tell me also how to get factory styles off the PA3X onto the PA4x. I have kept both keyboards and there a re a few styles missing off the Pa3x that I would like on the PA4x.

Many thank

Tony

  • Unprotect factory styles in MEDIA mode>>preferences
    Save a new SET:-
    Open SSD (i.e. select "All" and "OPEN")
    Open STYLES
    You will see ALL the style banks BANK01-15, FAVORITES01-15, USER01-.... etc
    You can save each bank at a time to the same SET and then you'll have all the factory styles saved.
    To restore factory BANKS you have to do this a bank at a time by "opening" the SET, then STYLES, then you'll see all the BANKS
    Loading the full SET will NOT automatically restore factory banks

Sorry if my response above was a bit abbreviated - was at work!!!
- please ask if you still have issues.

No that is ok. I worked out the bits that I did not understand.
I now realise that each bank of factory styles has to be added to a set individually and cannot be done by just selecting to 'save' 'style'

Now that I know what I am doing it is quite straightforward.

Thanks again Pete

Cheers

Tony
