Hi, Reno,

I don't remember anybody posting the manual as a PDF, maybe someone have it 
scanned and can send it to you. Search in the old messages in the Yahoo 
group to see if someone offered it.

You have some basic instructions into the "service manual" (pp. 27-36), 
that can be downloaded from the files section.

If all you need is to select patches, you won't need the display, just use 
the buttons and leds.

If you need to adjust some parameter, then you will have to enter the 
menus. And of course, if you want to program or modify a patch...

Anyway, the user interface is not very convenient, and editing patches is 
much easier with a PC and the VZpatch.exe program.

Let us know.

Good luck,


pdi
