Thanks Chris, that’s some good advise as well. I’ve had this unit for some years, but I’m just now getting deeper into the nuts and bolts of it. I just figured out how to use my Line 6 M19 to change patches via MIDI, so SysEx dumps will be the next level. But I definitely need to learn how to do that kind of stuff, and being able to download and share patches will be a great option to have. 

Thanks again!!
Terrell.

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.
