6. Disk mode
In Disk mode you can save and load internal memory data
to and from a floppy disk.
You can also make various setting related to saving and
loading.
The KARMA can use MS-DOS formatted 3.5 inch 2HD
floppy disks. After a floppy disk has been formatted on this
instrument, a 2HD disk will have a capacity of 1.44 MB (18
sectors/track).
Files, directories, and icons
The KARMA manages data on disks and other media in a
hierarchical manner, using files and directories. The contents
of a file (whether it is a file or a directory) are indicated not
only by the name but also graphically by an icon. Files and
directories have differently shaped icons.
On this instrument, files and directories that can be recog-
nized by MS-DOS (i.e., read by an MS-DOS computer) are
referred to as DOS files and DOS directories.
Various types of DOS files are distinguished by the exten-
sion that is added to the end of the filename.
In the case of a DOS file with an extension other than listed
below, selecting “Load selected” to access the dialog box
will cause the file to be considered to be a Standard MIDI
File (SMF). However, non-SMF files cannot be loaded.
When you save a file on this instrument, one of these file-
name extensions will automatically be added as appropriate
for the type of data.
If you change the filename extension of the following
files, they will be handled as undefined files when you
attempt to load them again; they will not be loaded cor-
rectly.
Use Song Play mode to load or save a .JKB file. This
cannot be performed in Disk mode.
Files handled by this instrument have the following struc-
ture. Since .PCG and .SNG files can be opened to divide
their contents, they are displayed as directory icons.
