Disk Mode Enhancements in Version 3
Saving Files
4-23
If you only want to select one object for saving, you need not select it with the Select button.
Instead, pressing OK will implicitly select the highlighted object if there are no other objects
selected.
This screen shows three samples selected for saving:
Func:SAVE|||||Sel:3/20|||||||Index:|||4|
Sample||201*Machine|Snare||||C|4S|||100K
Sample||203*Big|Bass|Loop||||C|4S|||218K
Sample||304*Distorted|Riff|||C|4S|||401K
Sample||305|EPiano1||||||||||D|2|||||24K
Sample||306|EPiano2||||||||||D|3|||||25K
Sample||313|EPiano3||||||||||D|4|||||15K
Select||Next|||Type||Multi|||OK|||Cancel
The Next button will cause the index into the list to jump to the next selected object, forward in
the list. When the end of the list is reached, the search will wrap around from the beginning. If
you have more than one object selected, then if you repeatedly press Next you can easily cycle
through all selected items. If there are no items selected, then this button doesn't do anything.
The Type button jumps to the next object of a different type from the one that is currently
highlighted. This is a convenient way to find a particular type of object in the list. If you want to
skip over the samples and the keymaps in an object list and jump right to the programs, press
Type about two or three of times, stopping when you notice that a program is highlighted.
Press the Multi button to enter the Multiple Object Selector (described in a separate section
below.) This powerful utility can be used to control the selection or deselection of many objects,
cross-referenced by object types and ranges of ID numbers.
When you are all done selecting objects to save, press OK. As stated above, if only one object is
to be saved, it is implicitly selected if it is the currently highlighted object and there are no other
selected objects in the list.
Cancel returns to the Disk mode page, exiting the save function.
Shortcuts when Saving Objects
Select All/Deselect All
Selecting or deselecting all of the objects at once can be done with the following double-presses
(two front-panel buttons simultaneously pressed):
• Left/Right cursor double-press: Select all objects
• Up/Down cursor double-press: Clear all selections
If you want to save most but not all of the items from a file (for instance, if there are some songs
in RAM that you don't want to be saved in the file), it may be fastest to first select all objects
using the Left/Right double press, and then manually deselect any unwanted items.
