7.3 Saving all sequences and songs
This function saves all 99 sequences and all 20 "songs" to disk in one file,
called an "All" file (the 3 letter file extension is ".ALL"). From the disk
menu screen, type 2 to select "SAVE ALL SEAS/SONGS" and the
following screen will appear:
To save an "All" file:
1. Assign the 16 character name for the "All" file to be saved. To name
the file, use the same method as used to name sequences:
A) Rotate the DATA CONTROL one step in either direction to
change the alphabetic keys to their letter functions.
B) Type in the new name, followed by ENTER.
There are two on-screen fields to determine whether there is enough space
on disk to save the file: SIZE and DISK SPACE AVAILABLE. SIZE
displays the size (in bytes) of the "All" file; DISK SPACE AVAILABLE
displays the available space (in bytes) on the disk currently inserted in the
disk drive. The "All" file should be smaller than the disk space available for
the file to fit on the disk.
2. Press SOFT KEY 1, <Save it to disk>, to save the sequence file to disk.
The file extension of "All" files is ".ALL". After the file is saved, the "Save
all sequences & songs" screen remains so that you can save another file.
NOTE: If you attempt to save a file to a disk which already contains a file of
the same name, the lowest 2 lines of the screen will change to the following:
If you press SOFT KEY 1, <Yes>, the existing disk file will be
overwritten by the file you are saving. If you press SOFT KEY 2,
<No>, the save operation is cancelled and the previous screen is
