He began playing guitar for Korn in July 2005. He was temporarily replaced by Christian Olde Wolbers of Fear Factory for the first three shows of the tour's 2006 European leg. No official statements were made to explain why Wolbers played only the first three shows (Portugal and Spain). Patterson resumed his role after those shows.

However, Patterson left Korn shortly after the MTV Unplugged sessions because of a personal fallout with James "Munky" Shaffer. Following his departure, he released a solo EP on iTunes, Dr. Z.

Patterson was brought back into Korn in January 2008 following Shaffer's supposed hiatus. He learned 10 new songs by ear on the flight overseas and had a show the evening he arrived.
