I've been using the J6 for a while and recently got the S1, both great devices at what they do

I also like that they have a similar menu system which makes using the S1 a breeze... but the main issue I have with the S1 compared to the J6 is as photo attached, when on the Pattern menu:

  • on the J6 you can visually see that 3-4 is selected, and 3-1/3-6/3-6 contains active patterns with the dim visual indicator and the others are empty

  • on the S1 you can visually see 2-8 is selected... but for the others you cannot tell if there's empty patterns or not (half of them are)... all of them are dimly lit?? it makes organising patterns more tedious

I hope this is something I missed somewhere in the setting and wasnt overlooked by Roland
