IconLib Load A Patch/Bank and Link (Library Window)

Purpose:

Link A Patch/Bank is very similar to Load A Patch/Bank. Both are used to bring an individual Patch or Bank of Patches into the Library. Link a Patch/Bank, however, does not actually store the component in the Library, it just stores a reference to the file. This means that any changes made to the source files on disk are automatically reflected in the linked SysEx in the Library. It also means that if the component on disk is erased, it will not be available to the Library and will be removed!

Note: only compatible Patches and Banks may be linked to the Library.

For a complete description of the advantages of file links, please see the Collection's Link a File

1.Choose Library/Disk/Load a Patch/Bank and Link
2.A file selector is displayed
3.Choose the SysEx file(s) to be linked to the Library
4.Press the OK button to load and link the files
