• Explorer - The WERSI Explorer will be displayed, and you can pre-listen to accompaniments which are located
on your hard drive, or an external data storage device, before loading them into the OAS Database. If you want
to load such an accompaniment into a Total Preset, you be able to save it permanently, unless you import the ac -
companiment into the OAS database (See the OAS Database chapter).
• Floppy - The WERSI Explorer opens also with this. You can pre-listen to accompaniments from your Floppy Discs
(For example, the old WERSI Golden Gate / Pegasus Style Disc Library).
• CD-Rom - Opens the WERSI Explorer to pre-listen to accompaniments contained on a CD-Rom.
• Load -With Accompaniments: The chosen accompaniment will be loaded into your Total Preset. If you have se -
lected one of the nine storage places under ‘Acc’. On your Main Display, the accompaniment will be loaded to this
place. If you did not select a storage place (one of the nine Yellow buttons),
the accompaniment will always be loaded to the first storage location (in our
example, it is ‘Rolandy*’. If there is already an accompaniment in the storage
location, it qill be over written.
For most people, the above information will not be important, they will just want to
load the desired accompaniment and start to play. Sometimes it is important to
know how a process works, but of course music making is always the first priority.
• Load -With Sounds: This is the same as the above described accompaniment load.
Simply choose the sound you wish to load, the sound will be loaded to the ‘Sounds’
level. Select one of the Nine Yellow buttons (currently marked Free) to save the sound.
Repeat the process (and select a different yellow storage location button each time) to load up to nine sounds for
saving into your Total Preset.
• Load -With Total Presets: The selected Total Preset will load and is immediately playable.
PLEASE NOTE: The ‘Back’ button will close the Quickload Centre.
