-thanks for the pointers..I was wondering the effects to be one each
of the sounds or gobal as in (say) the MC505. but as timothy says,
there are many option to get out of the Eproms in this case and noway
I can know at the moment if it is v3.01 or v3.18 or one of the
others..don't know if Kurzweil still supports them, but I hope so.
look forward to get it actually..
