thanks AJ,
that is what I found by fiddling. But it means when playing the only way to get the next registration is to press 4 buttons in a row, reg, followed by 0,0,1, reg followed by 0,0,2 etc etc?

I thought there must be a way of setting the +/- buttons to quickly scroll through registrations with just one button push.

... forgot to include. You can also determine settings (what a registration should change or ignor) by:

* Press UTILITY (from default screen).
* Press REGIS.Menu (F6).
* You can select from here what you want changed/not changed when you switch Registrations. Don't forget to SAVE before exiting.

The style UD is talking about is fast swing. Fast swing is using one of the grooves sampled into the XD9. It's tempo can never be slower than 160. So, even though you've locked the style tempo, it can't stay at 120. it must go to 160. Had you locked the tempo at 170, it would have stayed locked. We've talked about this on the X1 and SD1 for users who don't understand why the bossanova won't go slower than 80BPM. The groove would sound silly at a slower rate because of the limitations of sampling. I even called AJ to varify this a few minutes ago and he tried it and agreed with my evaluation.

technicsplayer,

You can assign up/down feature to the footswitch so you can scroll through (can't be done with current OS on panel buttons).

thanks, AJ, that's why it would not work, it can't be done!

OK - That makes sense .... but there was another one on that same page that locked at 140 ... I'll check to see if it's another sampled groove or not.

Whew ! What a relief - I knew there was a reason .... tempo lok is such a basic concept, and can't be compromised in my line of work. I frequently change between two or more rhythm patterns during a song .... for example:
"On Green Dolphin Street" 1/2 latin, 1/2 swing - gotta have both ! Aslo " I've Got a Lotta Livin' To Do"(Bye Bye Birdie) latin/swing again .

I'll play with it tomorrow, but this is the first kb that I didn't bring right to work and just "live with" - mostly because I had the X1 and SD1 and both fell short on my desires list. I'm treading water with this one, but I AM giving it a fair chance. I WANT to like it .... I really do. I want the option of the better right hand harmonizer that Ketron offers over the Korg method. I'll go play with it now, and post more later. (Wish I had a peach pie to go to, like George did !)
