directload keys
By using the directload keys, commonly used programs (.set files) can be quickly loaded for a given
application. In this way, converter can be instantly re-configured at the touch of a button, saving time
otherwise spent looking for a particular program file. For example, templates for individual pieces of
vintage midi gear, audio loop source material, particular songs in a live performance, or controller
configurations can be recalled as soon as the sources are patched up to the interface connections
converter is using on the computer.
The directload keys are assigned to specific files by entering the “load program” menu page where files
are listed, moving the menu cursor over the desired program file, and pressing [Alt] in combination with
the directload key (number keys 0 to 9) to be associated with that program file. When not in the “load
program” menu, in other words at any other time in converter, the assigned file is instantly loaded by
using the same combination of the [Alt] key plus the assigned number key.
The directload key assignments are automatically saved in converter’s configuration file c.cfg upon
exiting converter, and remain the same until their assignments are specifically changed at some later
point. In other words, loading a new program (.set) file will not affect the directload key assignments.
To check which files are assigned to individual directload keys, the directload viewpanel can be viewed
by pressing the [F12] (or [shift]+[F12] if the midi data reference panel is displayed by default) and is
viewable when the pop-down menu system is not in view.

simply load ‘lastset.set’ from the load file menu to recall the last (unsaved) settings.
The default settings assigned to the directload keys are the presets which accompany converter; these
assignments can obviously be changed, if desired.
