7.1! Bank Manager Toolbar
The Bank Manager Toolbar (shown below) provides convenient access to frequently- used Bank
Management commands and functions. Descriptions of each Toolbar button follows.
The Load button allows you to load a bank of Programs into the User Bank. Selecting Load
produces a ‘Load Tetra Program Bank’ window that allows you to locate and select Tetra Program
Bank files to load. Only those files having an ‘.m_b’ extension are valid Program files that can be
loaded - all other file types will be ignored.
! The Save button allows you to save the current User Program Bank. Selecting Save produces a
‘Save As...’ window where you can name the Program Bank and select the storage volume for the
file.
! The Receive button initiates the process to receive a bank of Programs from the Tetra hardware.
Selecting Receive produces a ‘Receive Program Banks’ window. You will need to click on the
Start button to begin the actual transfer process. The bank that is requested from the Tetra
hardware will be the currently selected User Bank (A, B, C or D).
In other words, if the User Bank is displaying Bank A when you initiate the receive command, the
Tetra hardware will transmit the first bank (Bank 1) to SoundEditor regardless of its current bank
setting.
! The Transmit button initiates the process to transmit a bank of Programs from the current User
Bank (A, B, C or D) to Tetra hardware. Selecting Transmit produces a ‘Transmit Program Banks’
window. You will need to click on the Start button to begin the actual transfer process. The
transmitted bank (A, B, C or D) will go into the corresponding bank (1, 2, or 3) on the Tetra
hardware. In other words, if the User Bank is displaying Bank B when you initiate the transmit
command, the Tetra hardware will receive that data into Bank 2 regardless of its current bank
setting.
! The Load, Save , Receive and Transmit button functions duplicate commands found in the menus.
! Lastly, although not related to the controls described above, the Transparency button allows you to
adjust the transparency of the Bank Manager/Librarian window.
