If the USB IN parameter is set to COSM BASS A, COSM
BASS B, or NORMAL PU, then MAIN & SUB will be set
the next time the VB-99 is powered up. If you plan to use
COSM BASS A, COSM BASS B, or NORMAL PU,
remake this setting each time you turn on the power to
the VB-99 (p. 152).

Patches not switching

❏

Is some screen other than the Play screen shown in the
display?

With the VB-99, you cannot switch patches in any screen
other than the Play screen. Press [EXIT] one or more
times to return to the Play screen (p. 20).

under [SYSTEM] - CONTROL ASSIGN to ASSIGNABLE
(PATCH).
