Search - SE
Description:
This command causes the RideTraXX to preload a file to a specific Channel,
Channel Pair, or Channel Group. If the next Play or Loop command is sent without a
sound number or file specified, the preloaded sound number specified by this
command is used. This is especially useful for All Channel play commands, where
you can leave the sound number unspecified, and the channel number is specified as
„*‟. The RideTraXX will start playback of all channels at the same time, using the
assigned files for each channel specified by a previous Search command.
