display shows the MIDI files contained in the disk,
identified by the extension ‘.MID’, together with
any other sub-directories present (shown with the
.<DIR> extension).

extension.
PLAY (F8)
Starts the playback of the Songs contained in the
list, after a short period. If the songs shown origi-
nate from Midi files, the preloading period takes
more time due to the conversion process.
During playback, you can advance or rewind the

lect one or more tracks, set them to key-play and
play along with the Song. It is not possible, how-
ever, to select the Song-Performances.
To stop the playback, press the STOP button.
The instant you start the playback, all Songs cur-
rently residing in memory are cancelled, except
the one currently playing.
Preload exploits the Song memory locations 1
and 2 for playback and stand-by of the back-
ground loaded files.
If the «Auto Preload» option is selected, a Song
will load with its associated RAM Sounds and
