Simple. Just turn on the registration sequencer.

Hi Roger,

Yes, it's possible and it is oh so helpful! As Fred says; use the Sequencer.
I've been using that Sequence function in my Registrations for years now and couldn't do without it anymore.

I use the studiologic vfp2, which has 2 pedals. It's very solid.
https://www.keymusic.com/be/item/studiologic-vfp210/?q=studiologic%20vfp2&

I use the right pedal to move forward in my Registration bank, following the instructions as programmed in the Sequence.
The left pedal can be used to move backward in the Registration, but I prefer to use it for other commands, like 'SyncStart' or 'Break'...

There is nothing to save, and only one setting.

You go to the registration sequence screen in utility. Turn on the sequencer. Accept the defaults for the other settings, or change them as desired.

You must make sure you have the sequence turned to ON and then exit the page. Now what ever you set your pedals to will work.
  If you have set up a specific sequence order for a particular song then you need to save it to that registration bank.

Yes Eileen!
I did saved Sequence to ON, but next day Sequence using Start-up registration, the Sequence was Off and the registration I made for "Scheewalzer" Did't turn the Reg. Sequence On. Tyros4 show no Freeze for this on/off button.
Once this is set On, it work with all my other registration too, but I don't wont this.
I think, I have to go Directly to the Sequence enable button and turn it on or off as needed. Herb

You can turn the Sequencer on only manually. A registration cannot change the sequencer setting.

Once you turn the sequencer on, you never have to touch it again. Unless, of course, you want to turn it off, but why would you ever want to do that?

Hello Fred!
Thank you very much for your reply. I use the pedal 1 for Sustain or Lesley Speaker and pedal 3 for Volume, pedal 2 is set for Articulation 1 why I don't know. Maybe that is one I could use to set it permanently for Sequence changes. Herb

Yes, when you use the registration sequencer, you need to dedicate a pedal to it. Any one will do.

I also turn off the Regist- pedal, as I never use that feature.

Yippee I've followed your instructions and managed to get my pedal to advance registrations. I don't know what I did wrong but it's working now. Thanks again.

Sorry if I reopen this discussion, I find it very uncomfortable not to be able to use the various functions of the pedals if I activate this option. For example, if I need sustain, how do you do it? Registration sequence excludes other pedals.

Amwilburn

Your registration bank needs to save the pedal settings that you want (including sustain) to each individual registration. Alternatively, you could make Sustain on pedal one, and use registration freeze to keep it on sustain, but you're kind of defeating the purpose of registrations if you do that (for example, in a multi instrument registration, I'll have sustain when it's on piano, but for sections with no piano, since both hands are full I use it to trigger drum fills, or sometimes the ending. Sometimes you want it to trigger vocal harmony on/off, etc, which you then won't be able to do if you have the pedal set to freeze sustain)

Registrations are really only useful if you pay attention to what each step actually contains (generally when you've made them yourself)

● Never put the Manual too far away: There's more in it than you think! ;-)

Registration sequence excludes only the pedals you set in the sequence.

I use only one pedal sequence. That leaves two others for whatever I want, like sustain.
