Changing the Sound of a Patch
The edit mode allows you to freely alter the parameters that make up a patch, so that you
can create your own patches. This section describes how to edit patches and how to store
edited patches.

Patch Configuration

Each patch of the 708II consists of several effects (effect modules), as shown in the
illustration below. A patch is a combination of modules, each with their distinct parameter
settings.

Within each module, there are several different but related effects which are called effect types. For
example, the MODULATION module comprises effect types such as CHORUS and PHASER.
The elements that determine the sound of a patch are called effect parameters. Each module has several
effect parameters, whose value can be adjusted with the parameter knobs 1 – 3, the [DRIVE] knob,
[DRIVE VARIATION] key, etc.

Also within the same module, different effect types will have different parameters.

Basic Edit Mode Steps

This section describes the basic procedure for editing patches. For information on effect
types and parameters in the various modules, see p. 33 – 38.

In play mode, select the patch you

PRESET group and want to store it, "A0" in the
USER group is automatically selected as store
target.
