Chapter 5 Setting/Changing Sounds (Patches)
Creating Synth Sounds
You can select from among the 384 built-in sounds that provide the foundation for the GR-33's patches, choosing a "1st tone"
(first tone) and a "2nd tone" (second tone).
Following the steps below, let's actually select some tones and assemble a patch.

The 384 tones of the GR-33 are broadly divided by their

the value to "O" means that the selected tone's original
attack will be used.)
