After reading Section 14, Working With Scenes, of the Fisa owner’s Manual, I compared the differences to the Roland 8X.
Both accordions have 100 Banks. The Fisa has 6 scenes in each bank for a total of 600 Scenes. The 8X has 14 User Programs (UPG), in each Bank for a total of 1400 UPG’s. The UPG’s are selectable from the 14 right hand register switches. Both the Fisa and 8X capture all of the accordion settings (configurations) in a Scene or a UPG. The Fisa captures 14 right hand register switches in each Scene. Therefore, the Fisa has a total of 600 X 14 = 8400 accordion configurations. This compares to the 1400 UPG’s of the 8X. I did not see any mention of “Sets” in the Fisa owner’s manual
When I set up my 8X, I configured 4 banks each with 14 UPG’s that I use regularly. To scroll between banks I use the right/left “Set” (Demo) buttons. If I want to switch from UPG 1-4 to UPG 4-4, I press the “Set” right button 3 times and then press the Data/Enter knob for the selection. With the Fisa, there is a “User Scene” selection of 6 buttons that allows direct selection of any scene with a single press of any button. The Fisa has an efficient design of the buttons on the panel of the accordion.
