Chapter 2 Creating Your Own Favorite Tones (Patches)
What is a Patch?
The GS-10 can store 200 combinations (or “sets”) of effects
and parameter settings. Each of these sets is called a “patch.”
Patches include both User patches and Preset patches.
fig.02-010
User Patches (U001–U100)
Newly created effects settings are saved in the User patches.
* A “U” appears in the display when a User patch is being used.
fig.02-020d
Preset Patches (P101–P200)
The Preset patches contain effect settings that really help
bring out the special characteristics of the GS-10.
Although you cannot overwrite the Preset patches with your
own settings, you can change (edit) a Preset patch’s settings,
then save the result as a User patch. (p. 25)
* A “p” appears in the display when a Preset patch is being
used.

How to Select Patches
(Patch Change)
When the Play screen is showing in the display, you can
switch patches using the PATCH/VALUE dial or DIRECT
PATCH [1]–[4] (p. 27).

* If you want to set a limit to the number of patches that can be
selected with the PATCH/VALUE dial, change the system
function settings (p. 65).
* Settings currently being edited are cleared when you switch
patches. If you want to save the setting changes you’ve made,
use the Write procedure (p. 25).
