If the Sample files used by the Program file are not in
the current directory or below it, a dialog box will
appear, allowing you to specify the directory. Use the
procedure “If a file to be loaded cannot be found,…”
(☞p.177) to load the required Sample files.
Since sample memory (RAM) overflow checking is per-
formed when loading each sample file, an overflow
may occur during the loading process.
If a loaded multisample is assigned samples whose
sample names end in “-L” and “-R,” an “-L” and “-R”
will automatically be added to the end (15th and 16th
characters) of the multisample name.
When you load two multisamples whose multisample
names are identical except for ending in “-L” and “-R,”
they will be recognized in Sampling mode as a stereo
multisample.
Depending on the structure of the AKAI Program, the
data may be converted into two or more programs and
one combination when it is loaded. In this case, the
number of programs created is limited to a maximum
of eight (the maximum number of programs usable in a
combination), and a message of “Exceeded 8 Programs”
may appear (☞p.303). Please be aware of this when
loading complex AKAI Program data.
If the loading-destination bank and number exceed
N127, loading will automatically stop.
The data in the locations following the specified bank/
number will be rewritten when you load. If you want to
keep this data, use “Save All” or “Save PCG” before
you load the AKAI Program data.
29) Load AKAI Volume: selected icon
You can load Program files and Sample files in a single oper-
ation from a Volume on an AKAI S1000/S3000 format sam-
ple CD. On AKAI S1000/S3000 format sample CDs, the
Program files and Sample files are organized into Partitions
and Volumes (☞p.175 diagram)
1 In the 0–1: Load page, use “Media Select” to select the
AKAI S1000/S3000 format media.
2 In the directory window, select the desired AKAI S1000/
3000 format volume.
3 Select the page menu command “Load selected” to open
the dialog box.
4 If you check “Advanced Conversion Load,” all Sample
files included in the selected volume will be loaded as
samples. Program file settings such as key group, key
group zone, oscillator, pitch, filter, amp/pan, and EG will
be converted into a TRITON Extreme program, or into
programs and a combination. (Multisamples will also be
convert-loaded.)
If you don’t check this, all Sample files included in the
selected volume will be loaded as samples, and the Pro-
gram file will be loaded as a multisample. Only the key-
map-related parameters from the Program file will be
loaded to create a multisample. (☞p.318 “About AKAI
Program files”)
5 If you checked “Advanced Conversion Load,” use
“Append to: Combination” to specify the destination
bank and number of the combination that will be created
by the convert-load operation. When you execute the
command, the combinations that are created will be
loaded starting at the bank and number you specify here.
6 If you checked “Advanced Conversion Load,” use
“Append to: Program” to specify the destination bank
and number of the program that will be created by the
convert-load operation. When you execute the com-
mand, the programs that are created will be loaded start-
ing at the bank and number you specify here.
If the loading-destination bank and number exceed
N127, loading will automatically stop.
The data in the locations following the specified bank/
number will be rewritten when you load. If you want to
keep this data, use “Save All” or “Save PCG” before
you load the AKAI Volume data.
Loading KCD files
30) Load .KCD
The selected .KCD file will be loaded.
1 Press the OK button to load, or press the Cancel button
to cancel without loading.
The loaded contents will be displayed in the Make Audio
CD page. As the data is being loaded, the WAVE files in
the list will be checked, and if a file does not exist, a mes-
sage of “File/Path not found” will be displayed.
0–1D: Load PCG(RAM) and Samples
“Load PCG (RAM) and Samples” loads from a .PCG file
only the programs, drum kits, combinations, and songs that
use RAM samples. This is useful when you are editing pro-
grams and combinations that use RAM samples.
The programs and drum kits that use RAM samples and the
combinations or songs that use these programs will be
loaded from the .PCG file. All programs included in the
loaded combinations and songs can also be loaded.
The applicable programs and combinations will automati-
cally be loaded in order from the bank and number you
specify. When loading, sample numbers and program num-
bers will automatically be adjusted so that they correspond
correctly.
Content that will be loaded from the .PCG file
1) Drum Kit: Drum kits in which RAM is selected for the
“High/Low Drumsample Bank” (Global P5: 5–1b/1c) of
at least one key.
2) Program: Programs whose “Oscillator Mode” (Program
P1: 1–1a) is set to Drums and whose “Drum Kit”
(Program P1: 1–2d) meets the conditions described
above in 1.
3) Program: Programs whose “Oscillator Mode” (Program
P1: 1–1a) is set to Single or Double and whose “OSC 1/2
Multisample High/Low Bank” (Program P1: 1–2a/2b) is
set to RAM in at least one location.
4) Combination: Combinations whose “Bank/Program”
(Combination P0: 0–1c/1–1b) is set to a program that
meets the conditions described above in 2, or 3.
