Can anyone suggest a way to initialize or clear out an unused program slot? My "empty" slots contain unwanted links to pianos and samples when I want to create a simple organ program. Of course I can change the linked piano and samples but I can't seem to clear them out.

A similar issue occurs with Songs where I want one, or sometimes two programs in the A and B slots but there is no way to delete program links in the C and D slots. Seems that I'm stuck with 4 programs (A-D) for every song when most of the time I need just one or two.

Well, it does not eat up any available memory so does it hurt when having links to pianos and samples if you have not activated the piano or synth part?

Good point, Schorsch. I decided to create some basic B3, piano, and e-piano programs to load into the empty spaces so they're available on the fly during gigs when things go off-script.

How do you like your Ventilator II? I'm trying to decide if it's a large enough improvement over my Electro 5 to justify the cost.

I like the vent very much, have two of them now, one to be used with my NS2 and the other with my two NS3s. To me the sound is much better than the internal rotary sim of the NS2 and also better than the one of the NS3, especially in combination with my two Hall of Fame 2 - but this is of course a subjective impression.

It’s worth to give it a try if you find a shop with a return policy to get your money back if the improvement is not what you expect.
