166
In earlier Virus models, Multi mode programs consisted of 16
Parts, each one referencing a Single program. The downside:
Multi programs depended on the location of all their refer-
enced Singles, so if you changed any program while working in
Single mode, Multi programs would change accordingly.
In the Virus TI however, each of the 16 Parts actually contains
the equivalent of a Single program. Parts also require a few
additional parameters (e.g. transposition, keyboard range)
which are all accessed via MULTI EDIT – hold down SHIFT and
press the master EDIT button to the left of the display. From
operating system revision 1.1 onwards, there is another 112
referencing Multi mode programs in order to supply you with
old and newfashion Multi mode program. The additional pro-
grams can be accessed on slot 17-127.
