The Blank Bank
• The blank bank is a great tool for programmers. The obvious
use is as an “initialization bank”, so that you can start from
scratch putting together a special purpose bank.
• One example I used recently - starting a bank of just
percussion patches.
I put BLANK BANK into a cartridge. BLANK BANK becomes
the “TARGET” bank.
I loaded up all the banks I wanted from disks to INTERNAL.
The INTERNAL memory becomes the “SOURCE”
• After that, I just copied the percussion patches I wanted into
the BLANK (target) BANK.
I always knew what positions I hadn't used yet.
I also easily moved patches around within the BLANK
BANK to categorize them.
I was then able to simply copy blank patches back to any
position I no longer needed. Using this technique, I was
always organized.
To get some additional utility out of the BLANK BANK:
1. Use as a bank to load up just before you loan your ESQ/80 out to someone.
2. I don't believe any authorized repairman has seen this bank so far. That opens up
some possibilities. [evil grin]
3. Load up this bank just before you’re anesthetized for a major medical procedure.
When you can hear the patches, you know you're “feeling no pain”!
