Don't worry too much, that's a shiny, new manual, so not everyone  
knows about it.

As Roman outlined it is possible to set the audio/midi stuff from the  
patch, but doing it that way is not well documented and perhaps a bit  
strange, so feel free to ask more questions.  It is something that  
would be good to figure out on this list, so that it can be well  
documented.
