From the Channel Patch, these switches follow the rules of Press and Release
switch operations. However, if these functions are accessed via the channel
strip keys, they may use either Press and Release or Press and Hold opera-
tions. Press and Hold functions are not available via the GC.
As with any control, changes to Channel Patch items may Auditioned.
