9.3 Patch Settings

See section 4.0 for a definition of Patch. You can store up to 200 patches in the memory.
The first 128 patches have been pre-programmed using the 128 GM format sounds. You
can alter the parameters listed below to customize these patches. If you want to create
new patches, overlays or splits you could use patch numbers 129-200 (128-199) if you
don't want to overwrite the first 128 pre-programmed patches. Try copying a patch to a
higher   number   and   experimenting.   If   at   any   time   you   want   to   get   the   factory   default
settings   back  go   to  Global  Settings   K.   See  section  9.0   on  how  to  get   into  the   Patch
Settings and on how to change parameters using patch and octave buttons.

internal GM sounds.
