Saving Files
If you want to save most but not all of the items from a file (for example, if there are some songs
in RAM that you don’t want to be saved in the file), it may be fastest to first select all objects
using the Left/Right double-press, and then manually deselect any unwanted items.
Viewing Selected Objects
When there are lots of objects selected, but they are scattered in the objects list, it can be helpful
to be able to view a list of only the currently selected objects. Do this by double-pressing the
Chan/Bank buttons.
• Double-press of Chan/Bank buttons: View Selected Objects
For example, if there were 10 objects selected, and you pressed both Chan/Bank buttons
simultaneously, the K2661 would show a list similar to this:
View|Selected|Objects||10/134|||||||||||
Program|300|Biggest|Kit||||||||||||7124|
Program|301|Repercussions||||||||||7124|
Song||||300|Drum|Groove|7|||||||||12092|
Song||||301|Drum|Groove|8|||||||||24700|
Song||||421|Nasty|Funk|||||||||||||3122|
Song||||500|Beethoven||||||||||||||1024|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||OK||
The top line shows 10 objects selected out of the 134 that are currently in RAM. If the number of
selected objects is larger than the 6 objects that fit on one page (as in this example), the list can be
scrolled to view all of the information.
Note that this feature is not available in the Load Object dialog.

The Choose File Name Function
When entering in a filename for saving, there is a Choose soft button. When Choose is pressed
from the file naming dialog, the K2661 will access the current disk directory and display the
following:
Dir:\||||||||||||Sel:0/10||||Index:|||1|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Choose|file|name:BOTTLE|||.K26|||||48K||
|||||||||||||||||CLAV|||||.K26|||1207K||
|||||||||||||||||REGGAE|||||||(dir)|||||
|Total:664K||||||STICK||||.K26||||550K||
||||||||Root||Parent|||||||||OK|||Cancel
The function of this dialog is to grab the text of any filename on the current disk, and either use
it as a starting point in the file naming dialog, or else use the chosen filename exactly. This helps
when replacing files on the disk (where the name must exactly match the file being replaced), or
adding files to the disk that have similar names or appended revision numbers. You can save
time by not having to enter the entire filename on the K2661’s alphanumeric buttonpad.
