How to Create a Macro on a Kurzweil K2500
A macro is basically a shopping list instructing the Kurzweil to load a predetermined set of files and/or objects. So, to create a Macro, there first must exist, on the disk in question, the files that you want the macro to load. Starting from the assumption that these files already exist, do the following:
1. From DISK mode, press Macro.
2. Press ON.
3. Set the Current Disk to the SCSI ID or floppy as applies.
4. Press Load.
5. Select the first file you want the Macro to load; press OK.
6. Select the Bank where you want this file to load into.
7. Press Macro.
8. Choose the Load method that you want the system to proceed with. (i.e., Overwrt, Append, etc.)
9. Go to step 4 and repeat until all the files you want the macro to load have been entered.
10. Once all the files are entered into the macro recorder, press Save.
11. Press Macro, then press All.
12. Name your Macro, choose a directory, and put it to disk.
13. That’s basically it. Now press Macro again, and then press Off.
14. Answer Yes to “Reset Macro?”
Now anytime you load that .Mac file, it will load all of the items that have been specified within it.
