You can easily record any instrument setup for unlimited future use. Eight setups
are directly accessible by using SAVE and RECALL as prefixes to the setup number
buttons, 1 through 8, which are also the Vertical MODE buttons. Twenty-two more
setups are accessible using the

setups In sequence and recall them in order by pressing STEP/AUTO. Sequences
automatically restart when they are completed.
