I was assuming that the user would not know... and want them all contiguous.
I would warn them about overwrites and then... just let it be.
BTW... I tried your adjustment on the .txinterval @100 and that seems to help unless, I am tweaking multiple knobs at the same time, then I still get a lock up.

Ok ... how do I join them?
Just paste them together in your editor and save as a sysex, then dump using midiox.
Ok, will try that..

I did use an $end statement at the end of the mega preset.
I deleted the preset I had tried to send, before you made it back.
It was vfx 1-6 and two mackie presets.
I will try loading them all in to your editor, then saving as a sysex and trying a dump.
I will post my findings.
