What is a “Patch”?
The GAIA SH-01 lets you save the sounds you create.
Each sound you save is called a “patch.”
You can think of the locations that store the patches as being like shelves.
You’ll select the desired patch by GROUP, BANK, and NUMBER.

How to Think About Sound Programming
As you take a closer look at the factory-set patches (preset patches),
you’ll notice all sorts of clever tricks that were used to create the sounds.
Remember these tricks, and use them to create new sounds from scratch.
As you create your own sounds by modifying the preset patches, you’ll
learn various ways in which the sound can be changed.
