Great advise, but I would just like to add that if you can store your patches on a computer and sent them back and forth via SysEx dumps, then you don't have to lose a single program. It just means that you can't have them all loaded onto the GSP all at the same time.

You can group them into to banks of patches that you would use together. For recording projects, you could store a bank of user patches for each project. If you're in a cover band, you can load a bank of patches you need for a gig, but then overwrite them with another bank when you get back home and need to get back using and creating patches for other purposes.

Of course, having the ability to transfer user patches back and forth from a computer also means you can try patches from other people.

Below is a copy of one of MIDIWizard's Help Topics that addresses the "Out of Program Memory" message.

Error Message: Out Of Program Memory

If you create a lot of user programs, your GSP-2101 will eventually display the "Out of Program Memory" message when you attempt to store a new user program.


The first solution to this problem is to reset some of your user programs back to their factory program equivalents. Do this using the following process:

  1. Make a list of those user programs in the range 001 through 100 you can live without

  2. For each of these user programs, dial up the corresponding factory program

  3. For example, dial up factory program 143 for user program 043

  4. Press the GSP-2101's Store button twice to copy the factory program to the corresponding user program

The above process releases some program memory. After restoring some user programs to their factory program equivalents, you should be able to continue creating new user programs.

If the above process releases insufficient memory for all the programs you wish to create, then you'll need to follow a more radical process:

  1. Make a list of those user programs in the range 001 through 100 you can't live without

  2. Perform a System Backup

  3. Use the System Backup file created in step 2 to Create a Set of User Program Files.

  4. Perform a Factory Reset

  5. Use the User Programs you created in step 3 to restore the programs you can't live without using the Program Restore feature
