Hi Tommy,
The parameter "Upper Octave" is memorized with the checkmark "Voice" in Registrations. There is
no way to lock the current "Upper Octave" setting in Parameter Lock (as is possible e.g. for the
split points or
fingering ). The Freeze function also does
not help here, because if you freeze "Voice", this would affect the entire current voice settings of the Right parts.
One way would be to use the PC program "Yamaha Registration Manager" (YRM) from Murray Best. This allows you to write the desired Upper Octave setting (e.g., "-1") in
Batch mode in all Registrations of all Bank files within a specific folder.
The basic procedure is as follows:
- If not already done, install the YRM version "5.1.1 Special" on your PC.

https://psrtutorial.com/util/best.html- It is best to copy all Registration Bank files (.rgt) to be edited in a new folder first and later work with these copies, so not with the original files.
- Start YRM and make sure your keyboard model is set as "Target Keyboard".
- Load a Registration Bank file in the YRM and open (by double-clicking) the first Registration of it.
- Make the desired
Upper Octave setting, e.g. "-1".
- Make sure that "
Duplicate Settings" is selected for "Duplicator" (right bottom corner of the "Registration Edit" window) and then click on the "
Process" button.
- In the next window set the checkmark (Duplicate Settings to) "
All Buttons" and click "
OK".
- Set the checkmark (Setting To Duplicate) "
Upper Ocave" and click "
Batch Duplicate Setup" button.
- Click "
Directory Duplicate" button.
- Select the
Source directory (which contains the existing Registration files) and click "
OK".
- Select the
Target directory (to which the edited Registration files should be copied) and click "
OK". (You can create a new folder here if needed.)
- In the "Directory Duplication" window, click on "
Yes".
- Finished! The processed Registrations should now contain the desired Upper Octave setting.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Chris
