wow. Thanks Mark. I had a fantom x a few years back, and I didn't experiment
with it that far. I did notice that the left and right arrows wrapped around.
This is good to know though.

That is not the case with the fantom x.
I have edited all my favorite voices with out that experience.
The curssor up and down buttons stop at the top and botton.
There are some cases where the left and right will circle around.
It could very well be, I've been using Roland for 23 years and I am used to
the madness of it all.
After editing the voices I save them to the user section.
Then I put them in the favorite list.
There are 20 banks containing 16 slots to a bank where you can save a voice.
When you bring up the favorite list the up and down cursor buttons scrolls
through the banks and the f1 through f8 below the screen selects the voice.
Hold the shift and press f1 through f8,
this selects the 9 through 16 voice of that bank.
Run the up button up and it stops at bank 1.
Run the down button down and it stops at bank 20.
They do not wrap around.
When you enter the edit mode, the f1 and f2 below the screen scrolls throu
the different parameter pages.
F1 stops at page 1 and f2 stops at page 18.
The up and down cursor buttons selects the parameter to be edited.
They do not wrap.
I'm not sure, but there could be a setting some where in a menu that would
change this.
Of course as you know as a blind user, we all have to be determined to find
a way.
Cheers!
Mark
