Object Utilities
11-9
Name
The Name utility allows you to rename an object without entering an editor. You can also use
this utility to rename one or more objects with the same name. This is much faster than
renaming each object individually. A lot of times you might want several objects to have the
same name except for a unique identifier at the end of the name. Using this utility function, you
could assign a common name to multiple objects at once, and then quickly name each one a
little differently.
When you press OK after selecting objects, you will see the following screen prompting you for
an object name, with a suggested default:
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Object|Name:||||Zither||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Delete|Insert||<<<||||>>>||||OK|||Cancel
The default name that you are presented with is taken from the highlighted object in the object
list, whether the highlighted object is selected or not. This makes it easy to copy the name of
one object on to another.
As in all naming dialogs on the K2500, you can do a double-press of the Left/Right cursor
buttons to put the naming cursor on the last character of the string. This is helpful when
putting unique characters at the ends of names.
Left/Right cursor button double-press -> Move cursor to the end of the name
The Relink-by-Name feature (described earlier) relies on there being unique names for
dependent objects of the same type, so it is a good practice to make object names unique,
particularly samples.
Delete
The Delete Objects utility is very useful for reclaiming unused object and sample RAM in your
K2500. This utility allows you to select any arbitrary group of objects for deleting, and audition
them if necessary before getting rid of them. This can be a convenient way to delete individual
or selected groups of objects. However, if you want to delete an entire bank or everything in
RAM, the Delete soft button on the Master Mode page is quicker.
If any of the selected objects have dependents that were not selected, you will see the question:
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Delete|dependent|objects?|||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||Yes||||No||
If you answer Yes to this question, all dependent objects of the selected objects are deleted,
unless they are being used as dependents of other objects that are to remain in memory.
Answering No will delete only those objects that were selected.
