Copy Keyboard Set 1 to Keyboard Set 2, 3, 4

After building a keyboard set (1) for a song, how can I copy that over to keyboard set 2, 3, and 4 with minor changes.
I want to make my sets similar throughout a whole song, like strings lower left, EP in the middle, and a solo sound (sax) in the upper section.
But I also want keyboard set 2 to have guitar upper lead, set 3 to have synth upper lead, and set 4 to have flute as the lead in the upper section.
I have done it with a couple of songs, but it takes time to "rebuild" that same set in each keyboard set with a new upper section lead sound.
I also know how to 'save' a set in my user sounds, however I cannot understand how to copy that user sound set back into sets 2, 3, and 4.
If I could accomplish this, then I could just save each one with its desired upper solo sound when saving back into the songbook.
Thanks in advance for the help.

If you load Set 1, then make a change to voice 3; why can't you save that as an Overwrite to Set 2? And then update Set 2 with a new voice 3 or 4 and then overwrite Set 3, and so on and so forth? There is no copy function as far as I know, its implied you can overwrite the other sets with your changes to Set 1.

Thanks for that info.
I tried to do that, but when going to the "Save Keyboard Set" info on page 382 of the owner's manual, my screen looks different.
I don't have the option of save "To Style". My screen only has one option.....save "To Library".
Maybe my OS version is too old at 1.2.1 ???
Still learning and need to figure out how to save all of my works before updating to 1.3.1,
This keyboard has been a huge jump in technology for me, learning every day, but still cautious.
This is quite a beast!!!!!

It’s quite an easy thing to do in the SongBook.
You just have to resave the SongBook entry.
You can manage which KS you want to save in which of the 4 KS slots of the SongBook entry.
See the manual or some YT demos.
I think Qui Robinez covered this in one of his excellent tutorials on YouTube.

Note: you don’t have to edit a style for this.
In the songbook you can use a style over and over again with different KS’s, FX, tempo, pads, tracks muted/unmuted etcetera.
The SongBook is the powerhouse of your PA5X.
It’s the core of my workflow. :-)
