RENAMING FILES
Pressing F3 (
) takes you to the RENAME page. In the rename page, you can
rename individual files on disk, or rename a volume on disk (a floppy disk can contain only
one volume, but a hard disk can contain many volumes). To name/rename a floppy disk,

scan all the hard disk volumes for a number set in this page which corresponds to the
Program Change number in the MIDI message. The volume will then be loaded (the
