Calling Up And Saving A Single Registration; Automatically Loading The Text File And Midi File With Registrations; Defining Which Parameter Will Be Controlled By The Registration - KETRON SD1 User Manual

CALLING UP AND SAVING A SINGLE REGISTRATION

The call-up function of a Single Registration is enabled by pressing the SINGLE REGISTR push button (the LED lights up). The original Folder of
the Single Registration will be Folder 93 when Master Folder is enabled or any other Folder created by the user with Master Folder disabled.
At the beginning it is advisable and easier to manage the Single Registrations with Master Folder enabled as there is no need to select the
source Folder before.
The Single Registrations can also be managed on Floppy Disk with Master Folder disabled, by selecting the source and/or destination disk using
PAGE +/-.
A Folder or a Floppy Disk may store up to a maximum of 999 Single Registrations, the numbering of which is automatically attributed accord-
ing to the time order in which the file is created, whereas the file will always be displayed in alphabetical order.
In both cases it is always possible to display the list of Single Registrations stored in the Folder simply by pressing DISK. From this page you
can find the progressive number attributed to the Single Registrations when the file is created or you can select the Single Registration to be
loaded directly using the VALUE +/-, F10 Select and F2 Load push buttons. The Single Registration cannot be called up using the numeric key-
pad in the Disk environment; therefore the Single Registration is either selected using the normal procedures required in the Disk environment
or you return to the main page of the display using the EXIT push button and enter the number of the desired Registration with SINGLE REG-
ISTR enabled.
To save a Single Registration on disk ( .SRG extension) you must first decide whether to use the Master Folder function and enable it using the
dedicated push button or find the destination Folder with Master Folder disabled. In the last case you can also select the Floppy Disk as the
destination disk (see Disk section).
Once the desired parameters have been set enable SINGLE REGISTR.
Press SAVE/ENTER.
Select F1 Registr.
From the page that follows enter the name of the Single Registration using the keyboard keys and the CURSOR +/- push buttons.
Confirm using F10 Save or cancel using F5 Escape.
AUTOMATICALLY LOADING THE TEXT FILE AND MIDI FILE WITH THE REGISTRATIONS
This function is one of the most powerful and useful functions of the SD1. It is used to avoid lots of procedures to load the file required when
playing live. There is no operational difference between a Registration of the Block Registrations and a Single Registration.
To automatically load a text file with .TXT extension or a Midi file with .MID extension all that is needed is for the name of the Registration to
match that of the .TXT or .MID file. The Midi file will be available by enabling SONG PLAY and then by pressing START. Remember that by call-
ing up a Style which exploits a synchronized audio sample, the audio sample will also be automatically loaded. The same applies when auto-
matically loading a Midi file with audio samples, the audio sample will also be automatically loaded. The most critical phases are indeed the
loading times of the audio sample which could be too long when playing live. This is why it is advisable to always check the actual loading times
in RAM. The Registrations do not allow for the automatic loading of audio samples to be attributed to Lower or Upper part.
DEFINING WHICH PARAMETERS WILL BE CONTROLLED BY THE REGISTRATION
It could prove useful to prevent the Registrations from saving or calling up one or a number of parameters they can control. For example, you
can prevent just the Vocal Sets or the assignment of the effects from being called up. Each single parameter can be detached from the
Registration. These settings are achieved in the following manner:
From the main page of the display press F3 Utility.
Using the PAGE +/- push buttons go to the second page of the Utility menu, pointed out by "2/3" on the display.
Select F3 Registr. Mode to access the single parameters.
The page displayed shows the parameters in the middle, grouped per areas to which they belong, called up using the function push buttons. For
F1 Arrange, F3 Utility and F6 Tabs a number of parameter pages are foreseen that are called up by pressing the same function push button
again. The parameters in the middle of the display are accessed using the CURSOR +/- push buttons whereas their enabling status is modified
from F10 Select. The first time you access the F3 Registr. Mode menu the Global parameters are shown, which can be modified only at this
time and to call up the pages that follow you must press the F1 push button. Below is the description.
