All of the patches and sets in a concert appear in the PatchList. The patch number
appears to the left of the patch icon in the Patch List. In Patch Selection mode, you
can easily search for patches by typing the patch number or the first few letters of
the patch name.
You can also skip patches or sets in the PatchList. When you skip a patch or set, using
the Command key together with the arrow keys to select items passes over the patch or
set and the next (non-skipped) item is selected. However, you can still select the item by
clicking it or using just the arrow keys. Skipped items are also skipped when you use the
patch selector in Perform mode.
