Is there any way to get more User banks?

No. There are 512 user patch locations (4 x 128 patches) and it is not expandable.

I have an old vintage Ensoniq sequencer that allows selection of patches using LSB or MSB, but not both. What that means is that I can select all the User banks using LSB, or I can select bank 0 on any of the ROM cards using MSB, but I cannot select banks above 0 on the ROM cards because you would need both LSB and MSB to do that. So I must copy ROM card banks above 0 to the User banks, so that I can access them using LSB only.

Why not copy just the patches you need into user patch locations?
