Loading & saving data, and creating CDs

Loading data from disk

The types of data that can be loaded from media are shown
in the diagram "Supported file types" on page 202. (For
more details, see "Load selected" on page 828 of the
Parameter Guide.)

Loading Songs, sounds, samples, and KARMA GEs together

As an example here, we'll explain how to load a song which
uses Programs that you've edited, Multisamples that you've
created, and custom KARMA GEs. In such cases, it is best to
load "all data."
When loading data, make sure that the Global mode
memory protect setting is unchecked. For more
information, see "Memory protect" on page 195.
1. Make sure that the disk or USB storage media is
ready for you to load data. (See "Media setup" on
page 196.)
2. Press the DISK button to enter Disk mode.
3. Select the Disk–Load page. Press the File tab, and
then the Load tab.
Press Drive Select and select the media from which you
want to load.
4. Navigate to the directory that contains the file you
want to load, and select the .SNG file.
Press the Open button to move to a lower level, or press the
Up button to move to a higher level.
The selected .SNG file will be highlighted.
5. Press the Load button.
Alternatively, you can use the Load Selected command in
the page menu.
A dialog box will appear.

The Disk mode Load page lets you load data from the
internal disk or any USB 2.0 Mass Storage Device, such as
hard drives, flash media, CD-R/RW drives, etc.
Note: The contents and settings of the dialog box will differ
depending on the type of file that you are loading.
As described under "Saving memory contents to disk" on
page 197, the KRONOS assumes that if .SNG, .PCG, .KSC,
and .KGE files share the same name, they're associated with
one another. The next few options let you load these
similarly-named files, if they exist.
6. Check the "Load ********.PCG too" check box.
This loads the Programs, Wave Sequences, Drum Kits, etc.
along with the .SNG file.
7. Use ".PCG Contents" to specify the data that you
want to load from the .PCG file.
You can load only a single bank, if you like. For this
example, we want to all the data in the .PCG file, so we'll
select All.
8. Check the "Load ********.KGE too" check box.
This loads the user KARMA GEs along with the .SNG file.
9. Check the "Load ********.KSC too" check box.
This loads the Multisamples, Samples, etc. along with the
.SNG file.
10.Use ".SNG Allocation" to specify whether or not to
erase any Songs currently in memory.
Append will load the song into the song number that follows
the song(s) currently existing in internal memory, without
leaving a vacant number.
Clear will erase all songs from internal memory, and load
the songs into the numbers from which they were saved.
11.Use ".KSC Allocation" to specify whether or not to
erase any samples currently in memory.
Append will leave all currently-loaded Sampling Mode,
EXs, and User Sample Bank data intact. Sampling Mode
Multisamples and Samples will be loaded into the next
available vacant numbers following the existing data.
