The large number of memories available in the
VR-160
could be difficult to utilize with-
out some means of organizing them. Fortunately, the VR-160 includes provision for di-
viding the memories into as many as 24 Memory Groups, so you can categorize the memo-
ries in a manner convenient to you. You may enter and exit the “Memory Group” mode by
a single press of the [
BANK
] key, as we shall see below.
