Keyboard sets 1234 PA 700.

[timtrax]

I use my PA 700 strictly as a midi file player. I have about 600 midi files in the songbook and it works great! I have noticed that when you set a song up in the song book it defaults to keyboard set number one. Every song defaults to number one! My problem is that I cannot save keyboard set number two or three or four. I have not been able to discover how to do that.

I'm not certain this is what you're looking for, but it might be. From something I posted elsewhere:

The way to save a Style in the Songbook such that, for example, variation 3 will be selected as what will play when you first hit the Start button is to save the style as a Songbook entry, with variation 3 selected when you do that save. Then, once the Style is invoked (via the Songbook), and you hit the Start button, it will indeed start by playing variation 3 when you hit the start button.

... Every song defaults to number one! My problem is that I cannot save keyboard set number two or three or four...

After choosing the Entry, the associated Style or Song will be recalled and always Keyboard Set #1 will be selected and will be active.

If associated with a style it will start with keyboard-set #1 playing with that style-element you saved with the sb-entry,
even if the style was saved in memory with another style element. That is because with each SongBook Entry no style or song is saved. Only a reference or settings to a style or song are saved.

When editing songbook entries, references and settings you can change and save that entry with WRITE - and does not mean your style will be changed.

*
To save keyboard set numbers #2 - #4 edit the entry to write or to replace keyboard sets with new ones (see manual Pa700 page 121):
.....
3 Go to the SongBook > Write page.
4 Select the Keyboard Set > Write checkbox to save the new Keyboard Sets.
5 Choose a single Keyboard Set location to save the Keyboard Sounds to the selected Keyboard Set inside the SongBook Entry. After choosing the target location you can give the Keyboard Set a new name.
6 If you don’t want to replace the Style or Song, or the Voice/Guitar Preset, be sure the other Write checkboxes are not selected.
7 Touch the WRITE button to save over the existing SongBook Entry.
8 If you want to save more Keyboard Sets, repeat the above procedure for the other Keyboard Set locations inside the SongBook Entry.

Thank you for the excellent answers! Actually, before your answers arrived, I finally figured out how to solve my problem. I had never noticed the ‘WRITE’ button. As soon as I pushed the WRITE button, everything became obvious!
With Saint Patrick’s Day coming up tomorrow , most songs will be keyboard set number 1 to start off with, that is a piano, and then keyboard set 2. - a piano/accordion split so I can play my solos. Then back to keyboard set number 1 for the verse!
