I suspect that the DX1 would keep the values programmed into the current pe=
rformance memory (Performance Edit Buffer or PCED) if you select only a voi=
ce.=C2=A0 This way the performance memory needs to be reprogrammed only onc=
e - when you turn the DX1 on - rather than every time you select a differen=
t voice. If you have a MIDI interface between the DX1 and a PC or Mac, you =
can use a DX1 menu option (I am not sure which) to bulk dump the current pe=
rformance memory and receive the dump via a general-purpose MIDI program su=
ch as MidiOx for PC ( www.midiox.com ( http://www.midiox.com ) ). Once this=
 dump is saved as a "system exclusive" (.syx) file, then you can re-send it=
 to the DX1 whenever needed.=C2=A0 I recommend that at least one of your DX=
1/TX816 should be connected to your PC or Mac via MIDI so you can browse th=
e 10,000+ DX7 voices on the YamahaDX group.
