LOAD
Probably the first thing you will want to do after booting up your sampler is to load some sounds (if
you wish to record your own sounds first, then skip to the section that describes recording). When
you press LOAD, you will see something like this screen:
Here, you see a list of folders (or ‘directories’). These contain sounds or can contain further sub-
folders containing more sounds, etc.. Folders are selected using the SELECT keys on F15/F16 or
via the DATA wheel. Once you have selected a folder, if you know what’s in it, you can load its
entire contents into memory by pressing F14 - LOAD FOLDER.
If you need to look inside a folder, it can be opened using F11- OPEN FOLDER. If the folder
contains sub-folders, you may see something like this:
Here, there are nested folders within the selected folder. The operation described above applies
equally to loading and opening sub-folders.
NOTE: These sub-folders could equally contain further sub-folders. For example, the
WOODWIND folder could contain further sub-folders FLUTE, CLARINET, OBOE, BASSOON
and PICCOLO. The same process applies to all nested sub-folders.
