questions
Q: what if I don't have an SD card?
A: then you can try the patches that don't require SD card, and upload the patch to Gills. simply open the axp patch file with the Ksoloti patcher, then go to 'Patch' -> 'Upload to Internal Flash as Startup' so that when you reconnect power to your Gills, it'll load the patch you uploaded.
Q: can I upload more patches to my SD card?
A: yes! just go to 'Patch' -> 'Upload to SD card' and the patch will be uploaded to the SD card. then when you reconnect power, you'll be back to the start-up patch for choosing a patch, and you'll see the patch you uploaded by its name after scrolling with the encoder.
Q: why is it free?
A: all the patches have actually been posted online for free download, that's why I'm not charging any money, even though I worked for more than a year on these 21 patches. please consider donating as I've worked on these patches for a long time with a lot of effort.
Q: can I re-order the patch sequence in the start-up patch?
A: yes! in the 'bundle bank.axb' file, re-order the patches' sequence to your liking by selecting a patch and click 'Move Up' or 'Move Down'.
