Special categories 
All 
As we’ve already seen, the all category is an alphabetical listing of 
all the Programs. 
 
Recent 
The ten most recently played Programs are stored for you 
automatically under the Recent category.  They are still listed 
under their primary categories.  This is a duplicate listing to allow 
for super-fast access.  Note that you cannot directly edit this 
listing.  You need to select and then play the Programs you want 
to be listed here. 
 
Faves 
●  Adding Programs to Faves 
When you find a Program you particularly like, add it to the Faves 
(“Favorites”) category.  In [programs] mode, press the control 
knob to enter edit mode.  You will be asked to Add to faves?  Press 
the control knob once again to add the Program to the Faves 
category.  There is no limit to the number of faves you can have. 
 
Press the [programs] button again if you want to cancel this 
action and exit the editing screens. 
 
●  Removing Programs from Faves 
To remove a Program from the Favorites list, call up the program 
and press the control knob.  You will be asked, Remove fave?  Press 
the control knob to perform the action. 
 
 
 
Switch Octaves 
 
While the Micron is a compact unit, all of its sounds span the full 
128-note MIDI range.  Use the [octave] buttons to the left of the 
display to transpose the keyboard up and down to cover that 
range.   
 
Notice how one or the other [octave] lights glows progressively 
brighter as you push it.  This provides a visual indication of the 
current octave setting. 
 
Press both [octave] buttons simultaneously to return to the 
default octave setting.
