Assigning a name

As an exception, in pages where you can assign a name to a patch or performance, pressing PAGE/CURSOR [ ] will not immediately take you to the next page. The cursor will move to each character in the name, and when the cursor is located at the last character, pressing PAGE/CURSOR [ ] again will take you to the next page. The same applies when moving in the opposite direction.

In pages where you can assign a name, you can hold down [SHIFT] and use PAGE/CURSOR [ ]/[ ] to jump to the previous or next page.
