Media Select
Selects the USB media (hard disk, CD, etc.) that you will use
for loading/saving.
This shows the type of device connected to the USB A
connector, and the volume label that is assigned to the
media.
Note: The media of the connected USB device is detected
when you power-on the M3. The M3 does not automatically
detect the media when you insert media into the USB device
after powering-on the M3. You'll need to execute the 0–8:
Media Information command "Scan USB device" on
page 419 in this case.

CDD: CD-ROM, CD-R/RW drive
HDD: Hard disk drive
RDD: Removable disk drive (e.g., magneto-optical)

The volume label display of a CD-R/RW drive will depend
on the inserted media and the page.

packet-writing-compatible disc, you must format it (see
"Format" on page 413). If you want to use this disc to create

Open
When you press the Open button, the directory will open,
and the current directory will move one level downward.
This can be used when a directory has been selected in the
directory window.
Up
When you press the Up button, the directory will move one
level upward.
Load
This command loads the file or directory that was selected in
the "Directory Window" (Media 0–1c) into the internal
memory.
When you press the Load button, a dialog box will appear.
The specific contents of the dialog box will depend on the
file you are loading. This is the same function as the Load
selected menu command.
For more information, please see "Load selected" on
page 398.
PCG Preview
If you selected just a single program, combination, or drum
kit from within a .PCG file (i.e., from an opened bank), you
can listen to the sound directly from the media without
having to load the file. If you've selected a combination, the
timbres in the combination will use the M3's internal
programs. In the case of a user drum kit, the sound
parameters of the program that was selected before entering
Media mode will be used.
WAVE Preview
In the Load, Save, and Utility pages, you can select a WAVE
file whose sampling rate (frequency) is 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz,
and press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch to play back
the sample. If you select a WAVE file that can be played
back, the display will indicate "Sampling START/STOP
plays selected file."
While a WAVE file is playing back, the M3 will not
sound in response to its keyboard or to note data
received at MIDI IN. The KARMA will also stop.
0–1b: Current Directory
Current Directory
The directory currently selected for processing is referred to
as the "current directory."
The display will show the full path name of the directory. A
slash "/" character is used as the delimiter between
directory levels. To change the current directory, use the
Open button and Up button (Media 0–1a).
