Hi. I'm new here. Normally, I find all the information I need by stubbornly exploring all available options I have in front of me or with the help from Google, but now I'm stuck!!! 😱 What happened was, I created my own harmony, saved it, and then I set it to multiple files / backings / arrangements (whatever one wants to call it) I had stored on "Registration Memory". A few days ago, I noticed that it sounded like the harmony had changed. Instead of the harmony I made and stored / attached to various files, it automatically stores whatever harmony is being used at that moment (like, for example, "standard harmony" if I've just turned the keyboard on). Once I press a file / backing I've  made, the harmony I've chosen to that particular file should just be THERE. Simple. What I mean is that if I would create two backings with two different harmonies, I wouldn't have to worry about anything. It would all be set. If I wanted to change the harmony on one file, that particular file would just change, not the other files. Simple. But, now, all files have the same harmony (regardless of  what I've saved). Can you help me, please??? 🙏 I sincerely hope I made myself clear (English is not my first language). Thank you.

I don't know if that is a solution for your problem, but try to uncheck "Harmony/arpeggio" in voice menu (to get there you can go to menu under voice selection or select "direct access" and one of buttons responsible for choosing voice or "direct access" and Voice button (this white one - 1 of the 6). This option is responsible for activating harmony/arpeggio saved to every single voice as a default one. When you uncheck it, there will be no change there at all (Harmony/arpeggio will remain this same even when you choose new voices).

To be honest I must chceck how this is working with Registration Memory. I didn't noticed strange behaviour, but maybe I am wrong.

If your registrations are not loading the harmony properly, it's because you didn't tell them to.

You need to re-memorize you registrations ensuring the Harmony/Arpeggio box is checked.
