To copy Scenes between Voices:
1. Hold [SCENE 1] (or [SCENE 2] and enter the number of the voice whose Scene data you 
want to copy. The selected voice number flashes in the LCD.

2. Press [YES/ENTER] to execute the Scene Load operation, or [NO] to cancel it.

To use this function correctly, keep in mind you are initiating the copy from the 
destination Voice/Scene and choosing the Source Voice/Scene. Make sense? This does 
_not_ work *if* you want to copy Scene2 from a Voice to Scene1 of another Voice. You will 
need to Swap Scenes in the source Voice beforehand:

Scene Swap Function
1. Hold [STORE] and press both [SCENE 1] and [SCENE 2] switches. "SURE?[Y/N]" flashes in 
the LCD

2. Press [YES/ENTER] to execute the Scene Swap operation, or [NO] to cancel it.

*Make certain to Store the resulting Voice before resuming with your Scene Copy.

No, it works the same under v1.02 as the other release levels.

See above explanation - you cannot copy Scene 1 to Scene 2 or Scene 2 to Scene 1 of 
individual Voices unless you perform a Scene Swap in the source Voice beforehand - and 
Store the results - prior to the Scene copy.


I think you had a question regarding Scene Morph too, which I think you've resolved by 
now, but for the record:

> My question is this:  I want to morph between the two bass sounds, and when I set 
either the modulation wheel or one of the assignable Knobs to SceneSel, it just alternates 
between the scenes, without morphing between them.


This is correct if you want to use SceneSel, but not to Morph between Scenes in a Voice. 

Try the following instead:

1. From UTILIT/SETUP menu, choose Ctrl Device - set MW to 1: Mod Dpt using the Ctrl No 
button to select from the available MIDI CC numbers.

2. Now scroll the available choices in Ctrl Device until you reach SCENE - set  SCENE to 1: 
Mod Dpt using the Ctrl No button to select from the available MIDI CC numbers.

3. Pressing both [SCENE] switches simultaneously activates the Scene Control function, 
which lets you "morph", or cross-fade between Scenes in real-time using the assignable 
[MODULATION] wheel, an assignable Foot Controller, or any other continuous controller.

If you want to use a controller other than the Mod Wheel to Morph, the repeat step 2 and 
change SCENE using the Ctrl No button to select from the available MID CC Numbers
