Listening to a patch
When you turn on the power to the 2100, it automatically enters Play mode. This section describes
the panel display in Play mode and how to select a patch.
Panel display in Play mode
The display and LEDs on the panel indicate the following
information in Play mode:
● BANK number: The number of the currently-selected
bank (0–9) appears.
● PATCH number: The number of the currently-
selected patch (1–3) appears.
● BOTH indicator: This indicator indicates the
currently-available group. When a dot (.) lights up,
you can use both the USER group and the PRESET
group. When the dot is turned off, you can use either
one of these groups.
● PRESET indicator: This indicator indicates the
currently-selected group. When a dot (.) lights up, it
indicates that the PRESET group has been selected.
When the dot is turned off, the USER group has been
selected.
● Effect module on/off:
If a particular effect module is turned on for the
currently-selected patch, the corresponding module
LED on the panel lights up.
