Basic Disk Mode

Load Function Dialog

Aborting a multiple file load is done by pressing and holding down either of the Plus (+) or the Minus (-) buttons that are located just below the Alpha wheel. This should be done at least one- half second before you anticipate the current file to finish loading, or else the K2661 will not sense that you wish to abort the load.

You will see the following question after the current file being loaded is completed:

Aborttheload?

YesNo

It may be a good idea to practice using this method of aborting a multiple file load, so that when the time comes that you accidentally select 100 files, you will remember how to abort the process. This same method (of holding the Plus or Minus buttons down) is also used to abort the Backup feature and the macro file load feature.

If you run out of object or sample RAM, you will have one opportunity to abort the load as explained above. However, if you continue from that point you may end up seeing the same error message “Memory is full” for each file that you had selected. This can be a rather tedious process, however it is still possible to abort out of this by holding down the Plus or Minus button simultaneously while pressing Yes when you see the following question:

Abortthispartialload?

YesNo

More Load Function Features

There are more features having to do with the Load function that are described later on in this chapter, such as loading macro files and loading AIFF files.
