Mark,
Yes, I am in the process of building several banks of registrations of 3 RH voice combos as you describe. So far it’s working well for me in terms of interchanging different Styles, as long as I remember to uncheck Style before each save. I made a post about this topic a few weeks ago and received some good strategies from various people here on the best ways to do this.
the other Mark,
Just curious, how is a “dummy” style made? Thanks.

Hi Rich,
When creating "Voice Registrations", which later (in addition to the Right Voices) should
also switch the Left Voice but not the Style, it must be ensured that the memorized Style can no longer be found later by the registration in question.
This can be achieved as follows:
1. Copy any Preset style to the user drive. Rename the style to e.g. "_Dummy" and then load this style.
2. Make the desired Keyboard Voice settings (Left, Right1-3), memorize them to the desired Registration buttons (with boxes "Style", "Voice" and "Keyboard Harmony" ticked) and save the Registration Bank (in the User Drive or on the USB stick).
3. Now
delete the "_Dummy" style in the User drive or rename it (e.g. to "_Dummy_off"). The registrations in which the Dummy style is memorized will now no longer be able to find the style, and therefore the current style will not be switched by these registrations.
By the way, you could alternatively use a USB stick for the Dummy style, which you use
exclusively for this purpose: Create the Dummy style on this USB stick as described above, load it from there and create the desired registrations. Then simply
remove the USB stick and the registrations can no longer find the style either.
P.S.
I mainly work with Voice Registrations that only toggle the Right Voices. In this case, of course, NO dummy style is required. It is important that the boxes "Voice" and "Keyboard Harmony" (!) are ticked in the memory dialog. I also check "Pedal" because I always work with the same pedal settings (Volume Pedal only affects the Right Parts). In the file names of my Voice Registration Banks, I use the letter "
v" at the beginning (e.g. "
vPianoStrings") to be able to quickly distinguish them from "normal" Registration Banks.
Best regards,
Chris
