Left or Right cursor button -> Displays Macro entry object list
The "Macro Object List" display, a scrollable list, shows what objects are to be loaded from the
Þle speciÞed in the currently indexed Macro entry. You will not see the names of the objects in
this display, because they are not stored in the Macro Table. The objects are referenced only by
object type and object ID. The "(load dependents)" indicator means that the Macro process
should also load all dependents of the objects in this list.
If you need to know the names of objects in a Macro entry object list, it is possible to begin a
disk function (such as Load), Þnd the Þle speciÞed in the Macro entry, press Open to display
the Þle's objects, and look up what the objects are, using the information in this display.
Unspecified Disk Drive ID
Before the time a Macro Þle is saved to disk, you can specify that a Þle's location will not be tied
to a speciÞc SCSI ID number. Instead, the Þle should be loaded from the same drive that
contains the Macro Þle itself. This is called the "UnspeciÞed" drive ID, since the actual ID is not
known until the time of loading the Macro.
The UnspeciÞed drive ID will typically be used by people who distribute K2vx sound Þles and
Macro Þles on removable disk media such as
CD-ROMs
or
Magneto-Optical Cartridges
. This
feature makes it possible to avoid specifying the exact SCSI ID used in a Macro Þle that is to be
loaded on someone elseÕs disk drive, since there is no way to predict the SCSI ID of the drive in
advance.
Another use would be, if you are consistently working with Macro Þles that load mostly Þles
from the same drive, then if you set the Macro's drive IDs to UnspeciÞed you won't have to edit
your Macro Þles if you happen to change the drive's SCSI ID.
Setting Macro entries to have an UnspeciÞed drive ID is done from the Modify Macro page
(press
DISK->Macro->Modify
), described later in this section.
The Library Disk
If a Macro entry is set to the "Library" drive ID, it means that the Þle to be loaded should be
found on the drive at the SCSI ID set by the
Library parameter
on the Disk Mode page. This
designation is similar in purpose to the UnspeciÞed drive ID, because it is a way to avoid
needing to hard-wire the SCSI ID in advance. The Library drive ID is intended to be used in
Macro Þles that reside on removable media such as a Floppy disk, whose Macro entries are
supposed to load in particular Þles on a speciÞc sample CD.
The main purpose of this feature is so that Macro Þles can be distributed on a ßoppy disks
containing programs that link up with sample Þles from CD-ROMs. Formerly, a user would
have to copy the CD-ROM Þle to their own hard drive if they wanted to make any new
programs that use a CD-ROM Þle's sample and keymap data.
There are a lot of possibilities in the K2vx to come up with new programs for using with many
available sample CDs. Now it is possible to distribute programs or sequences based on a
ßoppy to other K2vx users who already have a certain sample CD in their collection. They
