TRACK/VOICE ASSIGNMENT
At this point a special TRACK/VOICE assignment pop-up appears to the
right of the MIDI TRACK METER. You can use this device to tell the filing
system which MIDI tracks to assign to which AMS voices. Use the
Q
and
W
keys to change the AMS voice and the
SPACE
bar to assign the MIDI track.
(see diagram below). Note that the AMS voices 1 - 3 have MIDI tracks 1 -
3 assigned as default values.
If your MIDI composition uses more than three tracks you can SAVE say
three of these into one AMS (m.) file and then repeat the SAVE operation
to save the other tracks into a second or even third AMS (m.) file. Press
RETURN
after you have assigned the tracks to create and save the AMS
(m.) file. If you create more than one AMS file from a MIDI file try and
choose file names that relate to one another. This will make life easier when
reassigning these AMS files to a MIDI file.
eg.
m.PART 1
m.PART 2
m.PART3
etc.
Loading files into the MIDI module works in a similar way. You may load
multiple AMS (m.) files one at a time into MIDI tracks again using the
TRACK/VOICE assignment device. Since MIDI uses 2 to 3 times more
space to store music data than internal AMS (m.) files care must be taken
during multiple file loading to ensure that you have the space available. The
FILES command line pop-up can also be used to produce a CATALOGUE
of your data disk. It can be used to DELETE or RENAME a file. Refer to the
COMMAND LINE section of this manual for more information.
