Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hey, Vern.  I posted this some months back, the solution to the 
question: How do you assign a kit to a song?  I feel it's important 
this detail is saved on the "Tips & Tricks" page of DTXpressions, 
because you won't find it in the DTXpress manual.  I got it by 
writing to Yamaha.
Background to this is: I had created several main songs of my own, in 
some cases to add a click track at correct speed when rehearsing with 
my band, sometimes to add effects like a cowbell beat when both my 
hands were busy. But when selecting one song after another, I wanted 
the module to automatically select the appropriate kit.  The module 
already selects the correct kit when you change from one factory-set 
song to the next, but otherwise keeps defaulting to factory kit 40 GM 
std 1.
The solution:
Assign a kit to a song by doing the following:
1. Select User song from the Play mode.
2. Press [SONG] button.
3. Press [PAGE DOWN] button to select Channel and PCNo screen. Select 
Channel 10 and turn channel ON.
4. Top line of display should read "SONG Ch10=on".
5. Using [SEL] buttons, move cursor to "PCNo" field and enter desired 
kit number for current song.
6. Press [PLAY] button to return to Play mode.
Vern, if you could save that as one the Tips & Tricks, that would be 
great. ... Also, can I recommend doing the same with Bisqray's 
procedure for layering a walking bass line over a bass drum sound 
(Message #6241)?  Otherwise it seems like hard work and good advice 
being lost forever.
Cheers.
