Aha, that makes sense. I was confused because when I set up my
assignable knobs for general use, two actually say reverb and delay
send.

Yeah, I sorta understand that. I have just one set of values for my
assignable knobs and keep them the same for all patches. It's handy to
have the same 8 functions without programming them each time I make a
patch. For ages I thought mine had a fault because the previous owner
had programmed Ribbon Z to be CutoffEnv amount and I was baffled that
this happened even with an Init patch. So that taught me a thing or
two <g>

I see, thanks that helps. I thought that I was saving the offsets when
I saved the scenes.

Still, I think I'm sussed now so cheers.
