you can copy a whole Pad.

(overwrite).

Change data is not copied, to leave the original Sounds unchanged

Style Element Track Controls: Sound/
Expression
In this page you can assign a different Sound to each track of the
selected Style Element. Each Style Element can have different
Sound; after saving the new Style, please don't forget to check
the "Original Style Sounds" parameter in the Style Play mode
(see page 83), to let the Style select the Sound bypassing the Style
Performance settings.
In this page you can also check and modify the Expression
(CC#11) value for each of the Style Element tracks. This lets you
reduce the relative level of a track in a single Style Element, with-
out reducing the overall Volume of the Style. This is a very useful
control, when you have different Sounds assigned to the same
track in different Style Elements, and the internal level of these
Sounds must be different.
When in this page, press the corresponding button on the con-
trol panel to select a Style Element (VARIATION1 ...
ENDING3).
To copy the settings of this page to another Style Element, use
the "Copy Sound" and "Copy Expression" commands from the
page menu (see "Copy Sounds dialog box" and "Copy Expres-
sion dialog box" starting from page 130).

Expression area
Expression Monitor
You can use these indicators to check if CC#11 (Expression)
messages are contained in a track. Expression messages con-
tained in a track can vary the volume of the track. It is very diffi-
cult to catch them out – unless you carefully read all the events
in the Event Edit page.
