Thanks Frank! I'll be looking forward to getting those patches. I had plans to master the DX7 when I first got it and then for the last 15 years or so. Of course I never got around to it. Now I have the same aspirations for the X5D. I do have the volume pedal for the DX which you can also use as an expression pedal as I recall. I'll check out the Yahoo DX group, thanks!
