Ay Tom ye are welcome

- you load patch data by playing back the SEQ track of recorded sysex
data 

You are in essence putting your patches in theoretical jeopardy even
if you are careful - however once you know your system works as
desired - you will be able to manage it with no loss. To verify -
upload and then reload (1) patch only. On the MIDI SYSEX data page -
hit the CURSOR button to move it to the bottom position - there you
can specify saving  single patches or banks. Save one patch - change
the title of patch at that position in the XL7 - and then load it back
to see if the original name comes back - 

I think you should do this first with the patch at 000 Bank 1 

good luck!

Ed
