SOLO mode
As a guitarist you will often play a decent sound during the verses of a song, but switch to a fatter sound for your solo.
For the pedalboard I decided to offer the possibility to prepare a complete different patch as a solo setting assigned to each (normal) patch. This kind of specially prepared solo I call "dedicated SOLO". This will be perfect, if you intensively prepare for a gig. But if you do **not ** have prepared a special dedicated SOLO for a patch, I decided, that pressing the SOLO button should not do nothing. To my mind it was a better idea to at least increase the volume in this case, e.g. to 30% more than the patch normally has. This kind of solo I call "Volume SOLO". Good idea? Well, I noticed, that sometimes the patch already is near maximum "Master Volume" already - so increasing can not happen. Of course you could store all patches with just 70% Master Volume, to have enough "headroom" for the Volume SOLOs. But in case, that was not done, "Bass", "Middle" and "Treble" are simultanously increased in this case to gain the missing percentage of volume increasement.
If you press SOLO, either a dedicated SOLO is activated or, if none was prepared, a Volume SOLO is created.
At the moment, because of the structure of the file "patches.txt" it is only possible to leave the last 5 patches without a dedicated SOLO.
I plan to change the structure in future, so that 10 patches will form a group an each patch can be left without a dedicated SOLO.
