Hello,
I have questions on the 4x. I had a 3x and then upgraded to 4x, but there are some odd differences, and I'm wondering if there is something wrong.

1. The sliders 1 (drum), 2 (perc) and 3 (bass) do not work. They work on the pads only. In other words, I can't adjust volume on the drum, perc or bass.

2. If I make a change in volume (using either sliders or wheel) on mic, lower, upper 3, upper 2 or upper 1 and then switch to a different style, the adjustments I've made stay the same on the new style.

3. If I choose a different upper 1 instrument, for example, piano vs. organ, and then I go to a different style, again, the next style will stay on piano instead of the original factory setting for that style.

In other words, on numbers 2 and 3 above, any adjustments I make to the style remain the same when I go to another style.

This didn't happen on the 3x. By the way, I still have 2.20 and will be installing the upgrade. Maybe that will fix it?

Thank you

Firstly there is nothing "wrong" and nothing that needs "fixing".

Yes you can.
Sliders are multi-purpose and can be used for drum/perc/bass by pressing the "Trk Sel." button which cycles through the slider options.

This is determined by the status of the "STYLE TO KBD SET" button:-
Page 57 of the User Manual wrote:
    Letting Styles choose the Keyboard Sounds
    Choosing a Style might automatically choose Keyboard Sounds. This depends
    on the STYLE TO KBD SET indicator (KBD SET = Keyboard Set).
    STYLE TO KBD = "Off"
    Styles do not select a Keyboard Set.
    STYLE TO KBD = "On"
    When choosing a Style, Keyboard Set 1 is automatically selected.
    STYLE TO KBD = "Blinking"
    Choosing a Variation automatically recalls the corresponding
    Keyboard Set (1 – 4) inside the Style. For example, choose Variation 2,
    and Keyboard Set 2 will be automatically recalled; choose Variation 3,
    and Keyboard Set 3 will be automatically recalled.

Hope this helps

(PA4X is a new design)

Cheers

Pete Very Happy
