INTRODUCTION
Basically i2/i3 instruments equipped with a hard disk have the same user interface as conventional
i2/i3 instruments. Additional buttons or switches are not required.
You can use all the loading (LOAD) and saving (SAVE) commands for data (All Data, Programs,
Arrangements, Styles, Backing Sequences, Sequences) as you did before. This goes for the i2/i3 HD
as well as for i2/i3 instruments with a hard disk and User Style Expansion (i2/i3 EX).
Until now page 1 of DISK mode (DISK 1: LOAD ALL) has provided a LOAD ALL DATA command, with
which all the data from a floppy disk drive could be loaded. The following functions were shown in the
display (see ill. 1).

Until now "FILE:" has been shown above cursor position key A. Cursor position keys B or C have been
used to load the files stored on floppy disk.
With the new operating system you can choose between the floppy disk drive and the 10 hard disk
partitions (C-L) by pressing cursor position key A and using the VALUE dial or the DOWN/UP keys
(see ill. 2).

commands as usual.

KORG i2/i3!
