KITS AND SOUNDS

26

SOUND MANAGER is a more comprehensive version of the SOUND BROWSER. Sounds can be saved,
loaded, renamed, tagged et cetera. Opening this menu will show a list of all Sounds found in either the +Drive
Sound library or the Sound pool. Unlike the browser, all Sounds will be shown, not just the Sounds that can be
used by the active track. The color of the active track pad will show if the Sound can be loaded or not. Violet
color means it can. Additionally, when a Sound is highlighted, the <PADS> of all tracks to which the Sound can
be loaded will be shown in dim red color. Sounds can be previewed by tapping the pad of the active track, pro-
vided that the Sound can be voiced by the track (i.e. the pad color is violet) Scroll the list by turning the LEVEL
knob or by pressing [UP]/[DOWN].

Pressing [LEFT] will access the SORTING menu. The available commands are the same as those found in the
SORTING menu of the SOUND BROWSER. Read about the SORTING menu on page 25.

Pressing [RIGHT] will access the SOUND OPERATIONS menu. The available operations will affect the high-
lighted Sound. Press [YES/SAVE] to apply the commands to the selected Sound. Press [NO/RELOAD] or the
[LEFT] arrow key to exit the menu.

LOAD TO TRACK loads the selected Sound to the active track and makes it a part of the
active kit.

COPY TO... copies the selected sounds to one of the following:

• POOL copies the selected Sounds to the first free slots of the active project Sound
pool.

• +DRIVE copies the selected Sounds to the first free slots of the +Drive Sound library.

• +BANK (A-P) copies the selected Sounds to the first free slots of a specific bank
inside the +Drive.

STORE TRACK SOUND saves the active track Sound to the selected slot. Please note that
outside of the SOUND MANAGER, at any time (except when in MUTE mode or in SONG
EDIT mode), [YES/SAVE] + [MUTE] offers a shortcut to this operation.

RENAME will rename the selected Sound.

EDIT TAGS opens a menu where Sounds can be tagged. Sounds can have any number of
tags, but only the first two will be shown on the Sound list. Apply or remove tags by pressing
[YES/SAVE].
