Update: the "bug" of not being able to enter Global Params was me not pressing the correct button ^^ it should have been the *Group* A button, not *Bank* A...

I managed to send my sounds line by line to the 3P, so fortunately I have them back. Sending the entire Tone Dump doesn't seem to work properly however, but for now, I can live with that.
