Naming the program when saving all programs and sounds.

I wasn't sure is this is a problem that is encountered by all MPC 1000 users (including those using the JJ OS) or if it is something that is exclusive to JJ OS users.

My dilemma is, whenever I try to save a program encompassing all programs and sounds, it is saved with (by default) the name "Program01". Now, when I try to load said program after saving previously, I encounter a message telling me that Program01 already exists and whether I would like to replace it. I normally choose yes, but when I go to the main screen and scroll through the available programs, none of the programs that should be there, are.

I guess I'd like to know if there is a way to give a unique name to my "all programs and sounds" program so that I won't encounter this anymore. I know that on my 2000XL, this is possible, but for some reason I can't do it on the 1000.

Also, I am using JJ OS 3.06.

Thank you.

i'm unfamiliar with the problem because i don't save all programs/samples files by themselves.

i advise when saving just to save entire memory to a new folder every time. sorry i can't answer more specifically

I do believe this is something that should not be changed or fixed, this is purey down to the way you use the 1000, program01 has always been there by default even before JJ's os, and always should be, yes it is annoying but just remove it before saving.

I agree with you, but what is the original intended purpose of Program01? And, why does the saving of all programs and sounds default to that name? And the programs that I "thought" were saved in that program are never there.

I guess I'm just confused.
