Preset Parameters
After selecting the desired Roland Patch, pressing (ENTER-YES) will display the following page:
RR17 G
E
LO=xxx
H
I =xxx
RANGE LO HI
Ranges:
A0
to C8
These parameters allow you to define a key range for the selected Roland patch that you are
about to load. This can be used for doing partial imports when the selected patch would require
more memory or layers than the ASR-10 supports. This parameter defaults to the full 88 note
keyboard (A0 to
CS).
Pressing (CANCEL-NO) from this page will abort the command. After selecting the desired range,
pressing (ENTER-YES) will display the following page:
INST=
Range: 1 to 8
This parameter selects the target location into which the Roland Patch will be imported. It
defaults to the lowest numbered unused (empty) InstrumenMequence Track. Pressing
any
unused (empty)
(INSTRUMENT*SECIUENCE
TRACK) button will update the
INST=#
display.
After selecting the target location for the import, you must press (ENTER-YES) to begin the
importing process:
1.
The display will flash the following message:
INST
_
.-
:.I
II”)PORTII”IG
PRTCH
STOP
All button presses will be ignored during the importing process.
2 The ASR-10 will load as many possible samples into memory as it can, starting with the
lowest key in the selected key range, and moving up the keyboard. There are two cases that
can cause the ASR-10 to exit the importing process with only part of the selected patch
imported: if you run out of layers into which to import WaveSamples, and/or if the ASR-10
runs out of memory. This can be either more than the total ASR-10 memory, or more than the
current free memory. The display
will
show “IMPORT INCOMPLETE.” See the
Troubleshooting section for more information about this message.
3.
The default Storage Device for the newly created Instrument (used for Bank saves) will be
initialized
to
NONE.
4.
The sample data for the selected Roland Patch will be loaded into the ASR-10, mapped to the
appropriate WaveSamples and Layers. If the first sample that the ASR-10 tries to load is too
large to fit into the free memory available, an error message will be displayed.
5.
The Roland Patch parameters will be interpreted and converted appropriately. While each
Wave Sample is imported, the display will show “IMPORTING<12 character WaveSample
name>,” displaying the names of each WaveSample as it is imported.
Note:
The importing process may take a few minutes, depending on the size and
complexity of the Roland Patch.
