Saving/Calling Up and Using Tones
(Memory Mode)
The ME-70 has two primary operating modes: Manual mode and Memory mode. In Manual mode, the tones are produced by the actual positions
of the front-panel knobs for the various effects. In contrast, Memory mode allows you to save tone settings and recall them for later use.
In Memory mode, a combination (or set) of effects together with a
group of parameter settings is called a “patch.”
A group of four patches is called a “bank,” and the respective
patches in a bank correspond to the number pedals.
The banks are organized into nine “user banks” that you can freely
read from or write to, and nine read-only “preset banks.”
In total, the ME-70 has 72 patches.

This saves the control settings in a patch.
ΠYou can perform patch-write operations either in Manual mode or in Memory
mode.
ΠPerforming a patch-write operation switches the unit into Memory mode.
ΠUntil you perform a patch-write operation, switching off the power or changing
patches will cause any tones you've created to be lost.
ΠCarrying out a write operation causes any tone already saved at the destination
patch to be lost.
