NAMING PROGRAMS - COPYING AND RENAMING

If you have already recorded your own samples, then this procedure should be familiar as
it follows the same conventions.
To copy or rename a program, press the NAME key - this turns the front panel keys into
letter entry keys and you may type in a name of up to 12 characters (upper case only).
The +/< and -/> keys on the numeric keypad may be used to input backspace and spaces
respectively. When naming, you will see this prompt:
Pressing the NAME key again switches the numeric keypad from letters to numbers and
you will receive this prompt:
You may press NAME again to access the numeric keypad's letters. When in the
'numbers' mode, the +/< and -/> keys input '+' and "-' to a name. Pressing NAME again
reverts you to entering letters from the numeric keypad.
Alternatively, in conjunction with the CURSOR keys which can be used to move the cursor
around within the name, you can use the DATA control to scroll through characters.
When you have entered your name, press ENT and you will get this prompt:
Pressing will copy the original program - use this to create a new program.
If the program name is an existing one, the boxed area in the bottom right of the screen
will show:
You will receive the following prompt:
You must enter a unique new name.
Pressing will simply rename the currently selected program with the name just
entered. If the name exists, you will be prompted as above and you must re-enter a
unique name.
Pressing will exit the naming process altogether with no action taking place.
Should you press this by mistake, you will see that the boxed area in the lower right of the
screen still retains the new name you entered so press NAME immediately followed by
ENT and make your choice again.
