Bob, if you use a faulty registration as a template for a new registration, the new registration will also be faulty. For example, if you set up a registration for
Fly Me To The Moon and it has a problem somewhere, and then use it for another similar-sounding song by just altering
Fly Me To The Moon and resaving it under a different name, the new song will be faulty as well.
Members often create a suitable Template registration that works perfectly according to all the desired parameters and then use it as a basis on which to create a new registration. To do this, perform the following steps:
1) Create a correct template registration and save it as
Template.
2) Open the
Template registration and set the style, voices, multipads, and other settings to how you want for your new song.
3) Save this registration as
My Song (or whatever you want to call it).
In your Registration list, you now see
Template and
My Song.
After you become good at this, you may elect to create two or three "templates," each one having different keyboard configurations, depending on the song. For example, you may have a situation where you want to create several songs where you use the Genos as a full piano keyboard only. That setup can be a template all by itself. The only limitation is drive space, and Yamaha gives you lots of that.
There you go

Edit Here's one more tip. The Registration list is sorted alphabetically by default. After you create 50 song registrations (for example), the Template registration is on page 5 - not always the most convenient place when you want to recopy it for a new song. To keep it at the top of your registration list on page 1, rename it
1 Template. It will always be on page 1 at the very top.
