Viscount Concerto III - Operating Manual
INFORMATION ABOUT VOICE FILES
The Concerto III is capable of loading new
voices in its own internal memory by means
of five types of file:
1) .GRP:
indicates which voice .KEY, .PED
or .det files are to be read. This type of
file can be used to load all the voices of
the organ or each individual manual / pedal
board.
2) .KEY:
indicates which manual voice .DAT
file is to be loaded.
3) .PED:
indicates which pedal board voice
.DAT file is to be loaded.
4) .DET:
indicates which detuned (or “beating”) voice .DAT file is to be loaded.
5) .DAT:
contains the sound sample data.
Bearing this in mind, it is important to remember that:
o
In view of the close relationship between the various types of file (the .GRP file recalls the
.KEY / .PED / .DET which calls the .DAT),
do not rename
the files, regardless of its extension.
o
Do not modify
the contents of the .GRP, .KEY, .PED and .DET files.
o
Do not delete
the files supplied together from the .GRP file from the floppy disks. If any of
these files is missing, during loading of the voices an error will appear on the display, so the
system will not be able to save the voice(s) in the memory.
o
Please note that when you load a new voice in the organ, the original voice will be cancelled.
Please ensure that you have the disks delivered with the instrument with all the voices (files
.KEY, .PED, .DET and .DAT) and the .GRP files.
o
The detuned voices (.DET files) have fixed positions (in the last 8' stop of the family to which
they belong), so they cannot be freely placed. In addition, voices with different footages (32’,
16’, 8’, etc.) cannot be loaded in the stops which contain these voices.
o
The name of the .KEY / .PED / .DET file is not always exactly the same as the name of the
voice. However, the following video page will always indicate the name of the voice being
loaded:
