Loading Selected Entries From A Macro File - Kurzweil K2600 Musician's Manual

Disk Mode
Macros
When you load this macro Þle, the K2600 Þrst looks for the Þle \PIANO4MB.K26 on your
CD-ROM drive, because your CD-ROMÕs SCSI ID is 3 and youÕve set the Library parameter on
the Disk-mode page to 3. As long as you have the right disk in the CD-ROM drive, the K2600
loads the Þle, and then loads \PNOPROGS.K26 from the ßoppy disk.
If the K2600 executes the above macro, but the Library parameter has not been set (is set to Off)
an error message
Library|has|not|been|set
will be displayed when the macro process attempts to load \PIANO4MB.K26.
The K2600 remembers the setting of the Library parameter across power-cycles, via the battery
backed memory. Set up the Library disk once, and it stays that way until you change it.
The Modify Macro page is where you can edit macro entries to use the Library disk (in Disk
mode, press the Macro soft button, then the Modify soft button). See Editing
Macros on page 13-54 for more information.
Although the UnspeciÞed and Library Disk IDs are meant to be used with distributable media
such as CD-ROMs and ßoppy disks, these features will work with any supported disks.

Loading Selected Entries from a Macro File

It is possible to examine the contents of a macro Þle from any disk function pageÑthe same way
you would open a .K26 Þle to check out what objects are stored in itÑby highlighting the .MAC
Þle and pressing Open:
Dir:\ANALOG\|||||Sel:0/5|||||Index:|||5|

The K2600 will need to read the macro Þle into a temporary area of internal memory, which
means there needs to be enough free RAM to accommodate it. Press Open during the Load
function to enter a dialog similar to the MACRO page and the Save Macro page. This is called
LOAD MACRO page:
