Thanks for your response. I'm in a little southern town in Tennessee
and we have no yamaha dealer. I will have to look in Knoxville which
is 30 miles away for a dealer. If you could help run one down it would
be appreciated. It looks like the RP1 packs are pretty rare and I'd
like to have a way to store registrations. Don't by all means harm
the relationship with your dealer though.

This instrument is 20 years old and I'm not to familiar with it yet so
I don't know about a jack on the back for the drive. I know the RP1
packs plug in under the upper keyboard on the right side.

I'm pretty excited about this "new" high tech FX10. I've owned an E70
for 30 yrs (bought it when I was 16 yrs old) and simply wore it out.So
I think this instrument will be a huge step forward even thought we
have come so far since the FX 10. Thanks so much for your interest.
