The process of saving a patch and finding it later are closely related, so both are covered in this
chapter.

Using the Browser

Whether you're hunting for a specific patch or looking for something in a particular category,
the Browser has several features that will help you quickly locate what you need.

The Browse page

Press the [BROWSE] button to reveal these features:
Control knob Parameter
1 Patch select
2 Patch name
3 Category
4 Find By
5 Compare
8 Favorite Assign (access)
[1] Control knob 3 is only active when the Find By option is set to Category.
[2] Patches are assigned to the Favorites banks on this page. Use [SHIFT] + [BROWSE] to access
current Favorites.
Browsing is fairly simple. This page presents all of the main functions:
• Turn Control knob 1 to select a patch (or
use the big knob).
• Basic information about each patch is
shown in fields 2 and 3.
The Compare and Favorite Assign features are described later in this chapter.

Sort Methods

There are three ways to sort the patches. What this does is reorganize the patch list based on
the selected sort method. The patches stay where they are, they're just displayed in a different
order.
Find by Patch #
This puts the patches in order first by the Bank
they occupy (A-E) and then in numerical order
within the Banks.
Range
5 banks x 128 patches
(view only)
(view only) [1]
Patch #, Name, Category Sorting method (see below)
5 banks x 128 patches
• The patches will appear in a different order
depending on the "Find By" selection.
• Use [SHIFT] + the Left/Right arrows to skip
through the list 10 patches at a time.
Find by Name
This option puts all of the patches in alpha-
betical order. As Control knob 1 is turned the
patch Bank and number might jump around a
lot; this is because the patches are still in their
original locations. They are not relocated when
the Find By option is changed.
