Changing the "Patch Call" Method
In normal operation, the sound of the 504 II will change immediately if a patch is selected in play mode. This may be undesirable if a patch from a distant memory location is called and the sound of other unwanted patches in between is heard. If desired, you can change the "Patch call" method from direct selection to the pre-select method. In pre-select mode, you first specify the desired patch and then confirm the selection. The sound will only change after you have confirmed the operation.

Specifying the desired patch
Use the [ ]/[ ] foot switches to select the patch you want to use next.
You can also use the [+]/[-] keys to only switch the bank.
The patch change is confirmed, the sound changes, and the display stops flashing and stays constantly lit.
Changing the "Patch call" method back to direct select
The bank and patch number of the patch to be used next will be shown on the display, but the sound does not yet change.
To change the "Patch call" method back to normal direct select operation, simply turn the unit off and back on again.
This will return the patch select method to the default setting.
