EDIT PROGRAM

PURGE This useful function deletes all programs and samples not currently being

used by any multis in memory (these programs are referred to as

‘orphans’):

You may end up with ‘orphans’ in memory when you load several sounds

to try out. For example, when building up a multi, you may load in a few

drums programs to see which one you like. Once you have settled on

the one you want to use, all the others are redundant. Rather than deleting

each one manually, you can use PURGE to get rid of these and make

more memory available.

Whilst the PURGE function is useful for clearing orphan programs and their samples from

memory, it could be that you have programs ‘outside’ the multis that are intended to be

selected via MIDI program change within the parts.

Be careful with your use of PURGE as you may accidentally delete these.
