The core functionality of the ZOIA involves creating "patches" by connecting virtual modules. This allows for highly customized effects and synthesizers.

  1. Press the "Select" footswitch to enter patch editing mode.
  2. Use the rotary encoder to select a module category (e.g., Audio Modules, Control Modules, Effect Modules).
  3. Select a specific module and place it on the grid.
  4. Connect modules by selecting their inputs/outputs and linking them.
  5. Adjust module parameters using the rotary encoder and grid buttons to fine-tune your sound.

Saving and Loading Patches

The ZOIA can store up to 64 user-created patches, allowing for quick recall of your custom designs.

Using Pre-made Effects

The ZOIA comes with over 20 pre-built effects modules for immediate use. These can be loaded as starting points for custom patches or used as standalone effects without extensive programming.
