Patches & Favorites
169
IMPORTANT: Do not confuse Favorites with Patches. A Patch is a single registration, as
explained on page 1. A Favorite is a numbered button which you use to recall a Patch.
Ë FAVORITES
In order to make the 200 inbuilt Patches easier to use in real-time performance, the Sk-series gives you the ability to
use the FAVORITES Touch Tabs to instantly access the Patches you use most frequently. The principle is similar to
the buttons on the radio in an automobile which allow you to instantly find your most frequently listened-to stations.
The FAVORITES Touch Tabs are used one at a time. Touching a FAVORITES Touch Tab while another is active
cancels the previous combination and selects the new one.
When the Information Center Display is in the PLAY Mode and a FAVORITE is activated, the Drawbar settings will
change together with the names and volume settings of the Voices shown in the Information Center Display.
The Drawbar settings, Leslie, Vibrato, Percussion, Sustain and Volumes can be changed as you wish. However, if you
touch another FAVORITES Touch Tab or the CANCEL Touch Tab, the settings you have changed will not be
remembered. If you first Save the changes you have made, your changes will be remembered the next time you select
that Preset.
NOTE: For a complete listing of Patch Parameters, consult the APPENDIX located at the back of this Guide.
Ë MANUAL / BANK Touch Button
Normally, one of the FAVORITE Touch Buttons is “ON” (LED lie), indicating that a Patch has been selected.
However, if you want to de-select Patches and use the front panel controls entirely to control the sound, turn this Touch
Button “ON.” The FAVORITE Touch Buttons will all turn “OFF” and all sounds and features of the SKX will be
controlled by the front panel controls as well as by the Advanved Feature settings from the Information Center
Display.
