6.3. Random patch generation
PolyBrute can generate a random patch for you by choosing sounds A and B from different
patches, changing the morph knob value, moving the result to sound A, and then repeating
most of that process a random number of times. The generated patch can then be tweaked,
saved as a Snapshot, or saved as a new preset.
This feature is found at Settings/Preset Info/Generate. Press [Assign 3] to generate the
random patch.
6.4. Panel mode
In Panel mode the position of each knob determines the sound. This is the mode to use if
you want 1:1 feedback between the parameters and the sound you are editing: what you see
is what you get.
If you've edited the current patch, you might want to
before entering
Panel mode so you can get back to that edit. To do this, press [Save] once. Then press
[Program < / >] at the same time to load the panel settings. This replaces the current preset
with the actual positions of the knobs and sliders. To restore the edited preset, hold [Settings],
press [Save], and use [Assign 1-6] to select the most recent Snapshot.
6.5. Saving a preset
The [Save] button is used to take Snapshots, do a "Quick Save" to the current location, or save
an edited Preset to a new location. Summary first, then the details:

To save an edited preset quickly on top of the original version, press [Save] three times. This
overwrites the current preset location, so we made it a deliberate action to avoid accidents.
