Operation Manual

to confirm.

The Load operation concerns all types of files with the exception of the Midi-files (. Mid ). If File

Choice is pressed and Midi-file is selected and the Load function is disabled.

The multiple Load function may be useful for the Pattern, Custom Styles, Wave and Multiple

sample files. In the other cases, simply load the single file, as each file already includes all the

effects of the same type within the keyboard.

For example, a Program or User file includes all the 128 Programs and the 128 Users programmed

on the instrument, a Registration file includes all the 198 Registrations available and so on.

Load Sound: The Loading of the Sound Files is simpler than that of the other files. There are three

types of Sound files:

- SOUND: corresponds to a complete Sound Bank of the SOLTON Library for X 1 and consists

of a block of Sounds (or Grooves) of 8 or 16 Mbytes that may be loaded on Ram (Siam) or Card

(See RAM / CARD chapter).

- WAVE: the .Wave files are samples in Sample standard format (Microsoft) that the keyboard is

capable of importing, reading, saving. The .Wav extension is also applied to the new single sam-

ples achieved on the instrument by means of the Sampler function (See SAMPLER).

- MSP : Multiple-sample. The Multiple-sample is a sound made up of a number of samples

(.Wave) assigned to various areas of the keyboard. The samples may be the new ones achieved

with the instrument or also external.Wave samples.

To enable the loading of one of the three types of Sound from Disk to Ram Simm:

1 Select the type of sound using keys F1, F2 or F3.

2 Choose the file to be loaded using the Value +/- keys.

3 Press key F2 – Load to confirm the operation.

We remind you that the .SOUND file related to a complete Sound Bank will take up 8 free Mbytes

of the Simm and may be selected by enabling the RAM key.

The .wave files and .Msp (Multi-sample) files will be

allocated on the first free location between the 8 available

on User Voice – Bank 2 , from no. 17 to no. 24.

SAVE: (F3) The Save function is used to save the data

stored within the keyboard on Disk (Floppy or Hard).

1 Before gaining access to the Save function,

select the Floppy or Hard drive to be used for

saving using the Page < > keys.

Press the Save key – F3. The Display sets

itself in the File Choice display (See below)

allowing the choice of which section to be

saved on Disk.

3 Select the section to be saved using function keys

F2 – F10. The Display appears for the saving of

all the other functions in the same way as for the

example illustrated for the Programs:

4 Give the File a new name and press F10 –

Execute to confirm.

COPY

the Disk Copy function enables the copying of files from Hard Disk to Floppy (and vice versa).
