Just for verification. I must save my single reg's that I have created, and then just upgrade then re-load regs and I'm good to go?

Here's one big important improvement and I've tried it and it works perfectly now. I think it was Mario who needed this function fixed before he would consider any new Ketron product.
"Keyboard Harmony- The Harmony feature has been optimised such that notes (especially on percussive instruments) are no longer generated when keys played on the right hand side within a chord are released."
If you try this with acoustic piano for example, there is no longer the extra notes played when you release your fingers.

I also noticed that problem since I bought my SD1. I'm glad the new OS will fix that!

It took about an hour to do. I had no problems the instructions were perfect! The difference is immediate, you know it has been improved. The guitar and EP sounds have been improved the most!!! All the X1 carry over styles(in flash memory) have been improved. Midi files sound better! The keyboard velocity/feel is more expressive (this I could feel and hear right away).
What Ketron has done is amazing!!! Giving their customers this "GIFT" after the Keyboard has been out over TWO YEARS!!! All the KB's that were introduced when the SD1 came out are HISTORY, from a support aspect! Their replacements have been introduced.
Thank You AJ and Thank You Ketron!!!!!!!

I asked AJ today how much more polyphony has been added to the SD1 with 4.0 and his answer was up to 15 additional voices for the voice section. I'm not sure what up to 15 means but it sounds good!

I'll re-ask my question here: how come that after installing the new OS my old registrations are still there? Have I done something wrong? I have even tried to load a file called "Standard.reg" in the new Standard folder, but apparently nothing happened.
Does the new OS come with totally new registrations? Did I miss anything?
Thanks in advance.

You need to post this question to AJ. I would suggest doing it on the Ketron discussion forum on the BBS section.
