( [SHIFT] + [DUAL] ) - A function for copying parameters between partials on Partial-equipped Models (other than Analog Synthesizers and VOCODER) has been added.
(Display the copy-source Partial screen, then use the [SHIFT] + [WRITE] + copy-destination Partial button) - A screen displaying all key ranges of each part (KEY RANGE SETTINGS) has been added to the MENU screen.
This is convenient when making settings for split sounds in combination with I-ARPEGGIO. - A function for assigning the number of the Scene to recall at unit startup (Startup Scene) has been added.

In connection with this, the parameter that changes when the [UNISON] and [MONO] buttons are pressed has been changed from "PART" to "TONE." - For RD-PIANO's Preset Tones, the changes in tone due to the intensity of velocity have been adjusted.
- The Controller Assign settings for some preset scenes have been revised.
(The JUPITER-X is updated with the revised settings when the operation in "Returning to the Factory Settings (Factory Reset)" is carried out.)
