Hm... I don't have that preset in my board; I guess they have been updated since mine was shipped -- so unfortunately I cannot even attempt to reproduce the error.

What do you mean by this?

I'm hearing reverb on both the upper and the lower split of that patch (OS 1.14), and when I switch to a different reverb, it will change for both, as well.

Since both slot A and slot B are routed through a single Leslie sim, the reverb SETTING is disabled on Slot B. This is because reverb is routed BEFORE the Leslie, so there is only a single reverb. The Slot A reverb will affect both organ splits. I do agree that this is confusing, but as far as I can see, it is functioning as designed.

If you add an extra split on Slot B and assign a piano or a synth to that, you can see that the reverb in Slot B functions independently and works fine for the non-organ instruments of that slot.

Also want to report that when using a triple pedal unit through MIDI, in this instance the Kawai Triple Pedal unit for the MP11, it does work and send at least Una Corda but when I press the sustain on certain patches, especially the Grand Lady D, the pedal noise is ridiculously loud and intermittent when the pedal is depressed partially. Naturally, turning off pedal noise seems to solve this issue, so it seems like some sort of bug when reading the pedal data through MIDI.

I've got the same issue with to loud pedalnoise via midi, tested a while back with my Montage.

Think I've got a new one here. NS3 In a patch, while selecting a piano, none of the EPs or the Clavs are output to the headphones, except through an effect, such as a reverb tail. The 1-4 ouputs work fine. it's just the headphone out.

Could you give us a step-wise procedure that results in this, if it is reproducible?

I'm not sure exactly what happened for you -- are you saying that if you set up a simple piano-only program with no effects, then the headphones gives you no output? It definitely does here, so I'm guessing there is more to it than this :-) Or if you have a complex program with many things going on, the EPs and Clavs no longer work?

I cannot reproduce your issue as well. I used no effect and I can hear in my headphones all pianos from all the categories.

Your 1/4“-to-3.5mm headphone adapter is faulty. There appears to have been a huge shipment of faulty adapters from China flooding the market, where one channel‘s phase is inverted and the two channels are shorted out - resulting in the cancellation of all center-panned signals.

This is why you can hear stereo reverb tails and organs, but not monk Rhodes and Clavs.

Yes, a faulty headphone connection (with exactly the wiring that @analogika describes) can cause the cancellation of centered sounds. This also occasionally happens with weird wiring to the mixer and/or if you channels otherwise gets incorrectly summed. I had this happen also to me once with a in-ear system because of stereo signal going into a balanced mono input...
