Directories
A directory lets you group les together as you might separate documents using folders in
a le cabinet. By default all storage devices have at least one “root” directory. To organize
les in a USB device; you can create additional directories, as well as subdirectories within
directories. Directories appear in the le list with the indicator <DIR> to the right of the
directory name.
Path
When you choose the STORE or LOAD soft buttons on the Storage Page, you will have to
choose exactly where in the storage device you wish to store to, or load from. is location is
called a directory. When you need to choose a directory, you will see the Path eld. e Path
eld shows the current directory on the current device.
When you choose a storage function for a connected device, Forte SE automatically chooses
the root (top-level) directory for the Path eld. e root directory is displayed as a backslash:
Path:\
When viewing a page that has the Path eld, if their are any directories available in the root
directory, you will be able to choose them from a list using the alpha wheel, navigation
buttons, or - /+ (Previous/Next) buttons. en, press the Open soft button to open that
directory. e name of the directory will be displayed in the Path eld. For example, if you
have a directory called SOUNDS that is located in the current device’s root directory, the
Path eld will appear as:
Path:\SOUNDS\
e backslash character is a directory separator, as in the following Path:
Path: \BACKUP\COVERBAND\SONGS\
is represents the directory SONGS, which is a subdirectory of the COVERBAND
directory, which is a subdirectory of the BACKUP directory in the root directory. If the path
is too long to t on the display, it gets abbreviated. e maximum length of a path in the
Forte SE is 64 characters (including the backslash characters).
Using the Open soft button causes you to navigate into directories and their subdirectories,
away from the root directory. To navigate out of subdirectories back towards the root
directory, use the Parent soft button to move one level back from the current directory.
