This feature allows you to store all the FEDERATION effect settings in memory for instant recall of your favourite
effect 'scenes'. The position of every knob and switch, the trigger settings, the user beats patterns, utility mode
parameters and even the joystick position can be memorised in eight user definable program locations.

indicator within the selected PROGRAM button will start to flash to indicate 'EDIT' mode, as in the following
example:
