favorites. When the first favorite is selected, tapping the pedal again will select the 18th favorite.

and the right pedal to select the next-highest.

intended Favorites button, or pair of buttons. This method is useful when youÕve come across a

SoundFinder sound you really like and want to quickly assign it to a Favorites button.

¥ holding down the SoundFinder Select Sound button with the desired sound displayed and pressing a

foot switched programmed to select favorites. This method will be popular with musicians who like to
