CREATING AND MOUNTING A SET
Sets are created and mounted in the PROJECT menu. Press [FUNCTION] + [MIXER] to
open this menu. Select PROJECT and press the right [ARROW] key or [ENTER/YES] to
access the sub-menu options. Then select CHANGE, located in the SET section.
Press [ENTER/YES]. The active project will automatically be synced to the Compact Flash
card, storing all settings and assignments, before the menu where sets are changed is
opened.
• If no project is active a prompt asking “NOT WITHIN A PROJECT. CHANGES
MADE WILL BE DISCARDED. CONTINUE?” will appear. Press [ENTER/YES] to
continue with the change sets procedure. Note that this will discard any settings
and assignments already made. If you don’t want to lose any information, press
[EXIT/NO] to cancel the operation. Then save all settings to a new project by using
the SAVE TO NEW command before changing sets.
Once CHANGE has been selected and [ENTER/YES] been pressed a list of available sets
stored on the Compact Flash card will appear.
The currently active set is indicated by inverted graphics. To mount another set, select one
from the list of sets found in the menu. Mount it by pressing [ENTER/YES]. Once the set
has been mounted, the menu where projects are loaded and created will automatically be
opened.
Create a new set by selecting <CREATE NEW SET> and pressing [ENTER/YES]. A nam-
ing menu will appear where the new set can be named.
• After a set has been mounted a project should preferably be loaded or, if the set
doesn’t contain any projects, created and then loaded.
AUDIO POOL
All the samples of a set are collected in the audio pool. These samples are used to fill the
Flex and Static sample slots of the projects of the set. When a set is created, an audio pool
is automatically created as well.
