That is interesting... is it possible all 96 presets are just based on the same 32 VMEMs?

I loaded bank B back into the WT11, via MIDI-OX, and played each patch a little, then one a lot.  They all worked, but I have no way of knowing for sure where it's taking the voice memory from.

I installed Steem and YSEDITOR on my old laptop, which has Windows XP, but I couldn't find any instructions and got bogged down in the details.  I eventually got it to work, sort of, but I kept getting "Device not responding" a lot - despite being able to read the 32 voice memories (or similar name) from the synth, and the current performance, and successfully using the two buttons that play test tunes.

I tried editing one of the patches, but just by guesswork, because I didn't have any documentation beyond the help file.  I edited the pitch envelope, which worked, but I don't know if that's part of the VMEM or the performance.  I then pressed Compare, and it seemed to just lock up, though the synth displayed "Voice received", or similar.  I gave up at that point, and turned it off.

I don't really want to connect my WX5 to it, because it's connected to my VL70m (in a different room) and I don't like disturbing the connector.  I'm using my Akai EWI4000s, but I have to unplug it to use the editor.  I guess I could try a merger, but since I'm getting the error messages already, I kind of expect that to make things worse.
