You can use the following double-presses to select and deselect all entries in the list:
Left/Right cursor double-press -> Select All Macro Entries
Up/Down cursor double-press -> Clear All Selections
The top line indicates how many total Macro entries are in the current Macro Table, and how
many are selected.
Pressing
OK
will cause only the selected Macro entries to be saved in the Þle. If you press OK
but have not selected any Macro entries, then the Macro Þle will only have one entry in it, that
of the highlighted entry.
There isn't much use for a Macro Þle with only one entry in it, however it can be useful as a way
to create a link to an often used Þle on a drive. For instance, you could create a Macro Þle called
\PERC.MAC in the root directory on the disk that just loads in a Þle
\MYSOUNDS\PERC\GOOD\PERC.KRZ. Then, you would have fast access to loading this
Þle without having to go Þnd it, yet the Þle would still be organized in a subdirectory.
If you know that you want to save all of the entries into the Macro Þle (as we do for this
example,) just press
All
. The K2vx will go through the standard Þle saving dialog in which you
choose a Þle name and select a directory to save the Þle in.
Let's save the Þle as \ANALOG\SYNTH.MAC. Macro Þles are automatically saved with the
.MAC
extension. You will see the following on the screen as the Þle is being saved:

Loading the Macro File
So far, so good. We have created a Macro in memory and saved it to the disk, in the same
directory as the Þles that are listed in the Macro.
While this example only loads Þles from within a single directory on a single drive, this is for
the simplicity of the example. You can have Þles from any drive or directory in a Macro.
Now, let's go to the Load page and try to load the Macro Þle. This should load all of the Þles of
the Macro one by one. When you return to the Load page, the Þle list will automatically
highlight the Macro Þle that was just saved (as it would after any type of Þle that you save):
