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.
