Mark Patches as Favourites

lentferj	Posted on Mon 22 Dec 2025, 06:47 PM I just got my Essence FM today and it sounds fantastic and is really great to work with - nice gui, pretty much self-explanatory (so far :) ). One thing I missed right away when scrolling through the presets is a way to mark them as "favourite" or the like. I know, I can create a new category for that and move the presets to that category, but then I lose other important information (Bass, Patch, Lead, etc). I would be nice to have a "Favourite-tag" that you can also filter on in addition to categories, e.g. show the favourite patches in category "Bass".

lentferj	Posted on Thu 25 Dec 2025, 10:40 AM Thanks for the quick feedback. One addition: it would also be nice if the device came back at boot to the last performance / patch / voice that was selected when turned off. Right now it always goes to Patch A-0 when started.

KODAMO	Posted on Thu 19 Mar 2026, 09:52 PM About the last patch/voice used, it is not recommended to implement it due to hardware reasons (the EssenceFM uses only flash memory, and it would wear quite quickly if it had to be updated on every patch/voice change). In Global you can select which perf/patch/voice you want to have pre-selected at start, and which mode
