Wersi Abacus, User Manual

Page: 37 / 96

Quickload by its very nature is a quick-access function, so naturally WERSI created a second interface to make selec -
tion even easier, depending on the selection preference of the user.
Instead of navigating via the Groups (see previous page), you can also use a numerical calculator to ‘dial’ up any item
in the Quickload menu. To activate this function, simply press the ‘Show Keyboard’ button.
You can sort the displayed items in the left drop down menu in alphabetical order or after their ‘Save Location’ in ID /
numerical order. Simply touch the button ‘1,2,3 / A,C,B (Shown as 1,2,3 in our example).
PLEASE NOTE: Switching to a data type that holds many entries (as with the factory shipped sound-list hold-
ing over 1500 entries), it may take a few seconds for the deplay to update. The same applies to the opening of
the Quickload centre / function.
Depending on the selected data type, the lower part of the display shows various buttons.
• Advanced - Depending on the selected data type, by operating the button ‘Advanced’ you open one of the fol -
lowing displays: With Total Presets (Opens the Total Preset Manager), With Styles, Realdrums, MIDI-Files,
Waves, Video (Multimedia) and MP3 (Opens the Accompaniment Manager) and with Sounds (Opens the OAS
Sound Database Manager).
• Pre-Hearing - If you wish to ‘pre-listen’ to an Accompaniment, simply highlight the desired accompaniment in
the left hand list, and press the ‘Pre-Hearing’ button. You can use the Rhythm Controls to move through Style /
Realdrum variations, Fill / Break push buttons etc. Naturally, the Start / Stop button can be used to start / stop the
‘Pre-Hearing’. You can also use the virtual button ‘Pre-Hearing’ to Start / Stop accompaniments too.
Sounds: For Pre-Hearing of sounds, simply highlight a sound in the left hand drop down menu. The sound can
then be played on the Upper Manual.
(Please Note, the ‘Pre-Hearing’ function does not work with Total Presets)
