It checks all files in the directory for a suffix of 1-6 and loads the files matching this criteria
to the respective track. If no matching file is found for a track, it fills the blank tracks with
the first other not-yet-loaded presets in the folder. So if you have the presets BD01, SD03,
MYPRESET999, CHORDY and HIHAT6 in a directory, it would load T1=BD01, T2=CHORDY,
T3=SD03, T4=MYPRESET999 and T6=HIHAT6. T5 will be blank (if it did not previously con-
tain a preset).
