Good point Doug: I have set up a couple presets I use
all the time, so I forgot about that. The percussion
section is squirrely with teh button pushes, but I'm
one of those guys that really only likes 3rd soft (one
song the whole night I'll actually use 2nd); and I'm a
c3 guy as well. Something to consider.... Of course,
if you're one of those guys like me, you can just save
it to a preset and it's a non-issue.
