Media structure

Media structure
Each card (and the internal memory) can contain files and fold-
ers. Data in the Pa500 is slightly more rigidly structured than in
a computer, due to the pre-configured type of data inside the
instrument's memory. The diagram below shows the global
structure of a Pa500 device.
Note: Style banks from 1 to 17 (Factory Styles) can be seen in
Media mode only when the "Factory Style and Pad Protect"
parameter is set to Off (see page 225), and only when loading or
saving a single Style bank, or when erasing something.

Main page

There is no main page in the Media edit mode. When pressing
EXIT, you exit the Media mode, and the underlying operating
mode in the background is recalled.

Page structure

All edit pages share some basic elements.

List of files
This area shows the files and folder contained in the selected
device.
You can touch one of the heading labels above the list to change
the order in which files are shown. For example, by touching the
"Name" label, the list is alphabetically re-ordered according to
the file names. The selected label turns white, showing the cur-
rently selected ordering.
If you touch the white label again, the alphabetic order changes
from ascending to descending, or vice-versa. The small arrow
next to the label name shows the selected order.
The corresponding items in the page menu are automatically
updated to reflect these changes (see "Ordered by Name" and
"Ordered by Type" on page 227).
