Manual Mode and Memory Mode
When the power is turned on, the ME-20 starts up in “Manual mode.” In this mode, you can
use the pedals to switch effects on or off, and you can manipulate the knobs to directly obtain
the sound you want.
The ME-20 also features a “Memory mode,” which you can use in live performances and other
situations where you want to be able to switch settings instantly to suit the particular
circumstances.
