“Memory mode” is the mode in which you can save combinations of effect loops (patches) in the ES-8, and recall those saved settings.
In contrast to memory mode, “manual mode” is the mode in which you can use the switches to turn each effect loop on/off manually.
Patch Structure
A “patch” consists of a combination of effect loops (each effect loop’s
on/off status and connection order) and parameter settings.
Patches are organized by bank (00–99) and number (1–8). You can
store 800 patches.
Patch 99-8
Patch 00-3
