Nope. They don't.

Excellent. How do you like that by the way? Is it any good I keep getting mixed reviews from
people.

It dosn't you have to specify within the Instrument definition... I have the one I made at home
I'm at the office... but basically you specify the Bank and Patch numbers within the definiton and
you're able to select them from there... There is an example file over at the Yahoo XL-1 group...
that you can check out... I just installed the Pure Phatt rom yesterday so I have to modify my
defintion for my XL-7.

No. See previous. It's all about the definiton file... (.ins)...

Cheers...
