FYI
• You may want to write your name or your band's name into the greeting, or enter a message
that has humorous or personal significance. But you can also use the greeting message as a
sort of data identification tag, as described immediately below.
• If you frequently reload different groups of voices from different floppy disks, you may find
that you sometimes lose track of which voice group is currently loaded. You can avoid this
confusion by writing a separate greeting message for each voice group before storing the
group to disk. Write the name of the voice set, or the filename you will use, directly into the
message. When you save the data to disk ("Save All Data"), the greeting message gets
stored as well. When you then execute a "Load All Data", the stored message gets reloaded.
This means that the greeting message that appears when you switch on the power will
identify the currently loaded voice group.
