Tempo Change randomly under v. 3.1.0 problem

Hi,
This is about Pa4X version 3.1.0.

I notice recently in Style mode, some of my user style's Tempo change randomly when switching between them. This could happen with any user style.
I never had this kind of problem under version 2 for the years I am using the Pa4X.

For example I am playing and switching back and forth between two Style #1 Tempo 125 and Style #2 Tempo 115.
And suddenly Style #2 take the tempo of the Style #1 to 125 or vice versa, weird!

This happened 3 times so far. I did Factory Restore and loading my set but apparently it's not fixing the issue.
Has someone experienced this kind of problem?

Thank you

- As first be sure that speed dial switch is not temporary assigned to tempo value on screen , try switching styles again and then check if speed
dial is changing values by itself only under vibrations of control panel surface , in this case it has to be repaired.
- Digging deeper , switch between factory styles after factory restore and before loading your existing SET , to see if this happens there ,
if not then nothing to do with OS version & System !
- Now in case of PCG invalid source code (migrated styles of older Pa models) , adjust proper tempo values per conflicting style and re-save
"current style preferences" for each style.
- If this will fail to restore tempo of styles then enter in record mode and re-save those styles with proper tempo.

If all above fail , I see no other option IMO due to recover your custom PCG entries errors.

Hope this helps

I did all above troubleshooting but unfortunately it happened several times so far.
Yesterday it happened again during a gig with a Factory style that I copy/pasted in User area.
So I decided to report it back in case somebody else has experienced the same problem.

I maybe wrong but I was thinking if the problem could be hardware/software aging?
I am aware of hardware aging (logical) but how about software aging? Does it even make any sense?...:D

I've never had this kind of issue with my Pa4X before, it was rock solid and I did lot of gigs with confidence with it since 2016.

Personally I suspect the issue could be in Users/Favorite area design.
What's your opinion?
