Titolo: K2600 question

è possibile crearsi una propria libreria di suoni da caricare in eprom: dato
che ci sono 4 Mb disponibili di cui 1.87 occupati dal SO, 1.31 dai base obj
(di cui metà è da eliminare ;), ne avanza almeno1...
Qualcuno ci ha mai provato???

Nuova domanda: è possibile creare più file di oggetti da caricare(ovviamente
stando attento a non replicare la master table, etc e non duplicare gli ID
dei suoni...)? Non avendo la PRam aggiuntiva potrei creare file
relativamente piccoli e non sfruttare lo spazio adeguatamente.
Caso limite: nel caso sbagliassi le dimensioni ed eccedessi oltre i 4 Mb
cosa succederebbe? Rischio di causare danni alla tastiera? -Prevenire è
meglio che curare =);>-

Subject: Creating custom filesets. Plus KB3 programs

Regarding object files,
  Because the K2500's object files are user loadable into flash and because
they are no different than any other object file (except that they contain
ALL objects) they are user configurable. What this means is you can install
a
custom object file with all your favorite programs (preset or user created)
to create your own completely unique ROM set. There are restrictions and
requirements, You can not load samples into the flash, and you must keep the
rom sample pointers, prs and velocity maps, intonation, faders, and master
tables in the file otherwise the machine won't run, there is a flash memory
limitation which is aprox 780k, so the file must be no larger than that, and
you must have PRAM to create the object file if you wish it to be larger
than
234k. The irony here is that if you have a 2500 with no options you have
aprox 400k of space available in your flash for other objects without using
any of your available pram but you need the PRAM option to create the file
to
take advantage of the unused space DOOHH!
 The process is simple, start with an empty machine (hard reset), load a
complete object file into ram  (like the new KB3 objects file)just as you
would load any other object file you created, (load it as
everything/overwrite). This will take several minutes, When it is complete
you will see that all ROM objects have been replaced with identicle RAM
objects. Now change anything you like, you could get rid of those pesky KB3
programs; -) replace rom programs with your own tweeked versions or maybe
you
have a bank of custom programs you always use that you would like to put in
the 600's bank, or maybe you never use the stock setups and want to replace
them with your own custom setups. The K2500 is very intelegent with regard
to
deleting dependants of objects so don't be afraid to delete an objects
dependants for fear that something you need will be gone, the K2500 checks
all objects and deletes only those dependants not needed by other objects.
  The  other great feature here is the ability to alter Master table
perameters to create a custom master table. The Master table contains all of
the settings on the Master page as well as Song mode settings, Disc page
settings and best of all SCSI ID and other MIDI page settings (great for
multiple 2500 SCSI chains). Any of the settings altered on these pages are
stored in the Master table and will be saved with the object file.
  Once you have created your custom objects file you save "everything"  give
it a name and there you have it. You then hard reset your machine then load
the new custom file through the boot loader into flash and you have a custom
set of objects and settings. Good luck and have fun......kh
