Full Placement
The Akai files may have samples placed on multiple layers in a program.
The ESI only allows a primary and secondary layer in a preset. Turning
the Full Placement function On instructs the ESI to create "Linked" ESI
presets if an Akai preset has more than 2 layers. Velocity crossfade
assignments for these links will be ignored. Any linked presets will be
placed after the main presets in the preset list.
If Full Placement is set to Off, the first two samples assigned to a key will
be placed in the primary and secondary positions for the key, and any
subsequent samples assigned to the key will be ignored.
Combine -L/-R
When this option is set to "On", the ESI will look within an Akai
keygroup for left/right samples that can be combined into a single stereo
sample. If the first 10 characters of the 12 character sample name match,
and the last two characters of the two samples are '-L' and '-R', they are
combined into an ESI stereo sample. Program parameters for the new
stereo sample are taken from the left sample. The right side parameters
are ignored.
When Combine -L/-R is set to "Off", stereo samples are not combined
and each sample will be placed in a separate ESI zone.

Preserve Order
When set to "On", the ESI will attempt to map Akai program numbers to
the ESI preset numbers. If extra "link" presets need to be created in
order to place all samples within an Akai program, they will be placed
after all the base presets.
For example, the Akai S1000 permits multiple programs to have the
same program number (as a way of linking multiple sounds). If three
programs are set to program number, and "Preserve Order" is On, the
ESI will place the first program at preset 0 (if it not already filled), and
the next two at locations 126 and 127. All three presets will be linked
together so that all will sound when preset 0 is selected.
When Preserve Order is turned "Off", presets will be placed sequentially
in the lowest free preset location.
Confirm New Bank
When this function is set to On, the ESI will issue an extra prompt
whenever a load operation is about to destroy the current bank.
