Physis Organs
Reference Manual
11. FILE MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS
(FILE MANAG. menu)
The Physis organs use two different types of mass memory: the internal memory, and a data storage device
for connection to the [USB] slot underneath the manuals (USB pen drive). These data storage units are used
to save organ’s set-up or parts of it, pieces of music and song lists. Saving this file type
s is useful as it allows
to store large amounts of organ configurations and music pieces, as many as the memory can contain - the
internal memory can store up to several thousands of these files. This chapter will also deal with internal
work memory: this memory is in use whenever the organ is on, and it is not the same as the mass memory
(internal or USB drive), which is used for data storage instead. If a USB pen drive is connected, the system
will use it as the mass memory. However, the internal memory can still be used for copying files (from and to
the USB pen), but it is not possible to load, delete and rename files saved on the internal memory: the USB
stick has to be removed before this can be done. Selecting the FILE MANAGEMENT field in the main
screen accesses the relative menu containing all the file management functions. There is also a screen which
provides information about the firmware versions installed on the organ. As the video page shows, the
bottom of the screen identifies the memory unit currently in use:

The functions available are as follows:
o DIR : displays the contents of the mass memory (par. 11.1).
o LOAD : load files (par.11.2).
o SAVE : save of the set-up of the organ or parts of it in the mass memory (par.11.3).
o COPY : copy files from one memory unit (e.g. internal) to another (par.11.4).
o RENAME : file rename (par.11.5).
o DELETE : file delete (par.11.6).
o SONGLIST : programming of a list of pieces (par.11.7).
o O.S. INFO : display the firmware versions installed in the system (par.11.8).
When connecting a new or just formatted pen drive to the organ, the system will automatically create two
directories in the drive: “v_settings” and “v_songs”. The system needs these two folders to arrange files, and
they
must not be deleted or renamed , otherwise the saved files will be lost.
The system will save the organ configuration in the “v_settings” directory. “v_songs” is used for pieces and
song lists storage. The system uses the following files:
-
.all : all settings, TUNING, VOICES, SET-UP, UTILITY & MIDI functions, general and divisional
memories, mixtures, crescendo steps, Tutti, local off state (saved in the "v_settings" folder).
- . set : settings from the TUNING, SET-UP and UTILITY & MIDI menus ("v_settings" folder).
- .sty : settings from the VOICES menu related to the current Style ("v_settings" folder).
- .cmb : general and divisional memories, Mixtures, Crescendo steps and Tutti ("v_settings" folder).
- .mid : MIDI songs ("v_songs" folder).
- .lst : lists of MIDI songs ("v_songs" folder).
