Loading Patches from a Computer
To rename a patch:
rename the patch’s folder, just as you would rename any folder on your
computer.
To delete a patch:
delete the patch’s folder, just as you would delete any folder on your
computer.
Taken together, these basic functions make it easy for you to organize and sort your
patches. Another useful idea is to prepare a set of patches for a live performance by doing
something like this.
1. Back up all of your patches from the USB drive onto your computer (a good general
starting point).
2. Copy any new patches you will need from your computer to the USB drive.
3. Delete any patches off of the USB drive that you will not need for this set.
4. Sort the remaining patches by adding a number to the front of each patch name
(e.g., if
Basic Poly
was the first patch needed, I would rename it something like
1-
Basic Poly
.) This allows you to order the patches you will need while preserving
their names.
Additional USB Information
Here are couple other procedures and facts to bearing in mind while working with USB on
Organelle.
•
To safely unmount a connected USB disk:
from the patch information screen, turn
the Selector knob to call up the menu screen. Turn the Selector to the left (upward) to
move to the menu screen’s
SYSTEM
section, and select and engage the
Eject
function.
The display will notify you when it is safe to unplug your USB drive.
•
USB devices are not immediately hot-swappable.
While Organelle does not need to
be power cycled when a USB device is removed, any device removal will trigger
Organelle to quit the running instance of Pure Data and close out the current patch.
The display will notify you when this has happened (including after you disconnect a
safely ejected USB drive). You can then use the Selector to load or reload your patch
from the menu screen’s patches section.
