The chain thus created is loaded in

Song Play

using the

Load

function from the

Disk

menu or called up directly from

the first page of

Song Play

, by entering the number associated with the file chain using the numeric keypad (

STYLES

push buttons). Then if you go to

Song Play

, the title of the first Midi file will appear. There are three ways of moving

along the chain, namely:

●

Let the Midi files come-in as they end normally and the VEGA will load the next file and reproduce it without

touching a key.

●

Without starting

Song Play

using the

START

push button, use the

VALUE +/-

push buttons to select the Midi

files of the chain.

●

With Song Play running, to call up another Midi file, press the

COUNT/PAUSE/RESTART

push button and then

use the

VALUE +/-

push buttons.

Once you have found the Midi file, press the

COUNT/PAUSE/RESTART

push button again to start

Song Play

again with

the new Midi file. Whatever the case, if you stop a Midi file using the

START

push button,

Song Play

will loose the data

of the chain permanently and you will have to re-load them. The same applies to all Juke-Box controls, disabled when
a chain is in use. Just the words can be displayed.

F8 Chain List:

This displays all the chains of Midi files already stored within the Folder in use.

F10 Exec.:

This is enabled only if the chains of Midi files are displayed and is used to create a list of the Midi

files that make up the chain.
