Is there any way to have the Super 6 load up directly in manual mode while also having patches saved? The manual seems to say it is possible only if there is no INIT patches present and no stored patches either.

Hi, this is a good point. Unfortunately, it’ll only go to manual if there’s no init patch and no patch in the last loaded location. @DDS please can you log this as a feature request in upvoty thanks

Yeah I’d love for there to be a way to have stored patches AND still be able to boot in manual mode too.

100% @udo-audio this would be a no brainer feature if possible. Once one learns their way around a synth. Manual mode becomes a default to play from.
