Loading From Floppy Disk; Notes Concerning The Simm And The Card; Hard Disk Data - KETRON X1 Owner's Manual

Loading from FLOPPY DISK

1 – Insert the first floppy disk of the Sound Bank and press the
Disk button.
2 – Set the Floppy using Page < >. (if you are already in floppy,
press F1 Dir)
To continue, resume the procedure from point 6 of this paragraph.
The procedure to follow will require a little more time, seeing as
the Sound Bank diskettes must be loaded one by one.

NOTES concerning the SIMM and the CARD

• The data loaded in the Simm are erased when the keyboard is tur-
ned off. Therefore each time the keyboard is turned on, the Sound
Bank desired must be reloaded.
• The contents of the Simm (or of the Flash Card if inserted) are erased as soon as a new Sound
Bank is loaded.
• The 16-Mbytes Sound Bank (16 floppy disks) may be loaded in the Simm alone.
• It is possible to save a countless number of Sound Banks on Hard Disk and to create an impressi-
ve Sounds and Grooves Library that may be used according to the specific requirements.
• It is possible to simultaneously run a Sound Bank loaded on Ram and a different Sound Bank sto-
red on Card directly.
• The sounds stored in the Sound Bank Ram or Card may be entered within the Programs and sto-
red in Registration.
• For Sound Banks containing the Grooves, a Floppy disk containing the Styles especially program-
med for those Grooves will be supplied together with the 8 floppy disks. These Styles are then
loaded individually in the internal memory as Patterns (See DISK: Load Pattern).
• The Flash Card takes longer to load than the Simm, but its advantage lies in the fact that it
remains permanently stored and accessible without Loading operations even after the keyboard
has been turned off.
• Merely completely and accurately insert the Card into its slot to connect it to the instrument.
(The Card will not run if it is not inserted correctly).
• Disable the RAM key before removing the Card.
• The Card must not be removed while the Grooves and Sounds contained within are running.
Once the Sound Bank has been loaded from the Disk:
1) – Press the RAM key to activate the Sound Bank of the RAM (Simm).
2) – Press both the RAM and BANK 2 keys to activate the Sound Bank of the CARD.
