The LINKER module enables large compositions consisting of up to 26
separate music files to be played back as one piece of music. In this way
tempo, key and time signature changes can be easily incorported into a
composition. The music files can be created in the EDITOR, KEYBOARD
or MIDI modules. Each of the separate files are played back exactly as they
were composed; at the specified key and tempo with the envelopes and
filters in use at the time. The sequence in which the files are played back
can easily be entered and edited. The separate music file can be saved as
one large or LINKER file together with the sequence. This can be reloaded
for playing or editing.
There is space for over four maximum-sized music files in the LINKER.
However, since compositions are often made up of shorter sections in
perhaps different key and time signatures there is room available for 26
different music files at one time.
Unlike the EDITOR or KEYBOARD modules for instance, the Linker will not
play any music until you have loaded a music or Linker file. Any music and
sound sets in memory are wiped out when you enter the LINKER module.
Make sure that your latest masterpiece has been saved on disc before
selecting the LINKER!
