If you press SOFT KEY 1, <Yes>, the existing disk file will be

overwritten by the file you are saving. If you press SOFT KEY 2,

<No>, the save operation is cancelled and the previous screen is

redisplayed.

If your MPC60 has the sound memory expansion option:

Normally, your MPC60 may contain up to 13.1 seconds of sampling time at

full bandwidth. If you have the SAMPLING MEMORY EXPANSION

OPTION, the maximum sampling time is 26.2 seconds at full bandwidth. If

your MPC60 contains this sound memory expansion board, it will be

possible to have a SET file which is much larger than will fit on one disk. In

fact, if your expanded memory is 100% full with drum sounds, it will require

nearly all of two disks to save a single SET file! If you are attempting to save

a very large SET file to disk, it must be split between two files, one on each

disk. The first file will have the extension "ST1" and the second file will have

the extension "ST2". To save one of these large SET files, use the following

procedure:

1. Prepare two blank formatted

disks and insert the first disk in the drive.

2. Follow the steps for saving a SET file, even though the SIZE field is

greater than the DISK SPACE AVAILABLE field. The first of two

files will be created using the file extension "ST1".

3. Once the first disk has been filled, a message will appear on the screen

asking you to insert the second disk in the drive. Press SOFT KEY 1,

<Save 2nd part. The second file will be created using the extension

"ST2".

4. Keep these two disks together, because they will always be loaded

together.
