Hey Everyone,  
Is there something I can do so that the last preset I was playing is saved for when I start the gemini again?

Not necessarily changing the init patch, but having the Gemini remember that I was on D3 instead of A1 after every power cycle.

All good if not!

This is exactly what my SG does by default. I.E. the LED of Patch 3 is blinking at startup and i only have to press it, to start where i left the SG last time.

Which firmware does your SG have? I’m still on 1.25, don’t know if they have changed this with 1.26.

FW 1.26 here:

Shutting down on Perf B/B/6,  
Waiting 10",  
Powering up, flashing LEDs sequence,  
On Perf A/B/7, LED 7 flashing.

Not the most convenient…

I did not know this! I’ve got to try that next time I boot up.

Page 108 of the manual - Connect it up via USB, delete the init\_patch.usg file and power cycle. (just copy the file to a computer first in case you want to go back)

“Delete the init patch file “init\_patch.usg” from the instrument’s drive  
and make sure to empty the trash if you are a macOS user.”

“If no init patch file is stored on the drive, the instrument will load the  
last active patch upon power cycle. If no patch file is stored on the  
drive, the instrument will start in manual mode”
