multiple selection of entries with the Select soft button. Selected entries will have an asterisk on
the first character of the display line, such as this:
*5:\ANALOG\RESONANT.KRZ|||||||||200:F:||
You can use the following double-presses to select and deselect all entries in the list:
• Left/Right cursor double-press: Select all macro entries
• Up/Down cursor double-press: Clear all selections
The top line indicates how many total macro entries are in the current macro table, and how
many are selected.
Pressing OK will cause only the selected macro entries to be saved in the file. If you press OK
but have not selected any macro entries, then the macro file will only have one entry in it, that of
the highlighted entry.
There isn't much use for a macro file with only one entry in it, however it can be useful as a way
to create a link to an often used file on a drive. For instance, you could create a macro file called
\PERC.MAC in the root directory on the disk that just loads in a file
\MYSOUNDS\PERC\GOOD\PERC.KRZ. Then, you would have fast access to loading this
file without having to go find it, yet the file would still be organized in a subdirectory.
If you know that you want to save all of the entries into the macro file (as we do for this
example,) just press All. The K2000 will go through the standard file saving dialog in which you
choose a file name and select a directory to save the file in.
Let's save the file as \ANALOG\SYNTH.MAC. Macro files are automatically saved with an
extension of .MAC. You will see the following on the screen as the file is being saved:

Loading the Macro File
So far, so good. We have created a macro in memory and saved it to the disk, in the same
directory as the files that are listed in the macro.
While this example only loads files from within a single directory on a single drive, this is for the
simplicity of the example. You can have files from any drive or directory in a macro.
Now, let's go to the Load page and try to load the macro file. This should load all of the files of
the macro one by one. When you return to the Load page, the file list will automatically
