The RAM Save function is essential for optimizing the performance of your system. It scans the playback of your current project and unloads any unused samples.

To use RAM Save, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. In the general controls bar, click the RAM Save button.

    When this button is activated, a dialog opens asking whether you want to start collecting the necessary samples.

  2. Click Yes to apply RAM Save.

    The RAM Save button starts blinking.

  3. Play back the project in your host application from the beginning to the end (or to the point where no new notes are played).
  4. Click the RAM Save button again.

    A dialog opens asking if you want to unload all unused samples.

  5. Click Yes to unload the unused samples.

    The button stops blinking and remains lit to indicate that RAM Save is active.

  6. To reload the unused samples, click the RAM Save button again to deactivate the function.

    A dialog opens asking if you want to disable RAM Save mode. Click Yes. The button turns dark and the samples are reloaded.

    Note

    Reloading the samples may take a while, depending on how many samples have been unloaded.
