I thought from 3.x to 4.x was the SD-1 going to the 32 voice version
(as opposed to 21 voices).  Is that correct?

Isn't the 32 voice version more than just an EEPROM change?  I would
have thought that some other things would have changed, too.

If so, "upgrading the eprom to 4.10" would actually considerably more
than just changing the eprom -- probably a mainboard swap?
