Thanks! 10.000 cycles should be enough for eve... well, for me at least.

That's what I did, but eventually resorted to "scorched soil"
solution, initializing all the user data. What surprised me though was
the 78% amount (one would expect 100% or something near) after
flushing all the user space.

BTW: I only cared about patterns, since I'm working in a project with
another CS owner and we syncronize our stations using Dropbox &
E-Loader. We decided not to use our own sounds for this, at least now.
For the future we may resort to syncing SysEx dumps of user banks &
multisetups.

Anyone else is using CS for such a cooperation? I would be interested
to hear about your experience.

Thank you again for all the hints,

Bruno
