Preset Editing on the KORG PS3200


via Tom J Carpenter of Analogue Solutions on Facebook: "One little known thing about this synth is most of the knobs have built in pull switches enabling you to edit your presets"

According to another comment in that thread: "There is a flaw in the design though. You can edit your patch, but if you try and save it, it records ALL the current knob positions and not just the ones you have tweaked, thus erasing your patch."

The PS3200 came out in 1978.  If you are curious what was the first programmable synth with editable patch memories, see this post. Update: added another early programmable preset synth to that post, the ASE MCS-70.
