DOES NOT SAVE PATTERNS

Having spent hours creating chord or note patterns only to find that each pattern has reverted to C major when reloading an AUM session despite the key showing D or whatever I set it to. FIX THIS ISSUE PLEASE, MOST ANNOYING!! Time wasting because of this issue

Saving configuration

I like the Bud apps so far but I didn't find a way to save my configurations on this one so far so any work is lost when closing the app.
