1 - GET BANK DISK 1
A Performance disk stores one Bank of Presets (plus the Voices that make up the
Presets). Loading the Bank into the machine lets you play with the Presets and
Voices that make up the Bank.
When the machine is first turned on, simply inserting and latching a Performance
disk into Drive 1 will initiate loading a Bank. At all other times use this function to
load a new Bank into memory from a Performance disk inserted in Drive 1.
1. Remove any existing disk from Drive 1, then insert and latch the Performance
disk containing the Bank to be loaded in Drive 1.
2. With the disk module active, key in 1 to GET BANK DISK 1. The drive clicks, its
LED lights, and the display tells you that...

Note: If you try to get a Bank from a Library disk, which of course doesn’t store
data in a Bank, the display will read:
Insert Perf Disk
And Press Enter
Insert a Performance disk, press ENTER, and continue.
3. To choose a different Preset, enter its number with the keypad (see GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS 1, “Selecting the Current Preset”).
4. To choose which Current Preset will be active when you load a Bank, select the
desired Preset just before saving the Bank to disk (see DISK 7, “Save Bank”).
The Emulator II will default to that Preset whenever you load the Bank.
