Multi Organ View File Sliders 1-4 control volume for 4 overlaid Hammond type organ tones. Zone 1 - Rock Organ 2 Zone 2 - Percussion Organ 1 Zone 3 - Dark Organ 1 Zone 4 - GM Organ 2 (each zone full keyboard) Rotary is OFF for all tones, since I use an offboard rotary sim (H&K Rotosphere). Rotary can be added via Edit-->Tone for each zone. Submitter negriljerry Submitted 03/31/2016 Category Organs

Mike - can you post a list (pdf) of the tones you also replaced?

The Alternate Order DL saved me many hours of rearranging stage settings, I could never get by with the original banks. FIRST, assuming you have created/modded many of your own stage settings: back up the whole package as described above, except from the media display select SAVE and ALL. Load the new pack as described. THEN cherry-pick the new settings Mike has created and save the ones you want to keep individually to USB drive / computer. Finally reload your whole stage settings pack and then you can overwrite settings as you please with the new ones.

Lucky Man ELP View File Right half of board is square wave lead with heavy portamento. Left half is enhanced pad-type, pad + soft strings + vox. RIP Keith. Submitter negriljerry Submitted 03/26/2016 Category Privia PX-5S

THANKS for the Alternate Order file, I really needed it!

OK, found the Alternate Order .ZAL file (thanks, MIke!) but I don't see it in the data editor software. It's parked in the same folder on my PC (DataEditorPX5S-->Data). How to I write the .zal file to the PX-5S?

Well here I am correcting myself already, sort of. When I press Bank and a 1st digit the number display at left flashes, then when I press the 2nd digit the asterisk appears next to the numbers. I can then scroll through all ten of the available sounds...with the FIRST digit as the held one. Which is utterly useless for stage, at least IMHO. So - sure, I can scroll through all my preferred organ / piano / etc Stage Settings, all I have to do is take a few days to fix what Casio broke - rewrite ALL of them with 1st digit as bank. Not easy to do without overwriting many I want to save, but doable. ?: If Casio always planned on using 2nd digit as Bank, why not program the Hold function to apply to that digit, instead of first? Again. because the teams who designed / engineered the PX apparently were in some kind of pissing match, or perhaps simply incompetent - the left hand / right hand ignorance thing....

I just went in to the Data Editor for the first time, to transfer a few DL'd organs... and lo and behold the developers of this software are as baffled by the PX's bizarre 2nd-digit-as-bank thing, because they arrange stage settings by FIRST DIGIT, meaning your organs, pianos etc are all scattered throughout out the list of 100 settings. Does the right hand at Casio have any idea what the left hand is doing? And you can't hold a bank, to more quickly scroll through the 10 settings? Any setting change has to involve 3 key presses (Bank-->1st dig-->2nd dig)? Totally unacceptable. I haven't reviewed this unit online yet, waiting to see if someone can clarify my concerns before I post what is shaping up to be a very less than positive impression. As in, as much as I love the keybed and some of (certainly not all - awful horns) the sounds, there's too much negative for me and I think I'll be flipping this and moving on.

Right, I'm aware of the difference between the stage setups vs tone patches, just wondering about the odd 2nd-digit-as-bank thing - but your reminder that I can rearrange at will solves that. I'll check out the Alternate Order dl, thanks

New PX-5S owner here, love the keybed and potential so much that I can overlook the strangely counter-intuitive features. My main curiosity (and pls direct me if this has been addressed elsewhere): Stage Settings: Has anyone else EVER encountered a board or module in which you accessed bank-->setting with the SECOND digit as the bank?? Every device I've used would be something like: Bank 01 - acoustic piano, 01 thru 09 are various acoustic pianos, etc. It struck me as uniquely awkward to have the 2nd digit as bank. Also is it always necessary to tap 3 times to access a setting? [bank button, two number buttons]. Again, I've never had a unit that didn't allow me to "hold" in a bank and scroll through the tones/settings in that bank. Thanks!
