Handling Songs with a USB Storage
Device
You can handle User songs (save, load, and delete) with a USB storage
device. You can also format the device or media.
Before using a USB device, read the "Precautions when using the USB TO
DEVICE terminal" section on page 41.

About Save and Load

Save
You can save three User songs in the instrument to the USB storage device as SMF song
files. These songs can be saved to a "container" (or memory location) in the USB stor-
age device. 100 containers are available — S00 – S99.
Since the User songs are saved in SMF format, they can be played back on other instru-
ments, including other Clavinovas.

If you want to only play the song in the USB storage device, the following operation is
not necessary. For instructions on playing the song, see "Playing Back User Songs from
a USB Storage Device" on page 45. The Load operation can be used if you want to edit
the recorded song on the instrument. Data can be loaded to User Song 3 (U03).

TERMINOLOGY
SMF (Standard MIDI File):
The SMF (Standard MIDI File)
format is one of the most common
and widely compatible sequence
formats used for storing sequence
data. There are two variations:
Format 0 and Format 1.
A large number of MIDI devices
are compatible with SMF Format 0,
and most commercially available
MIDI sequence data is provided in
SMF Format 0. The SMF format for
sequence files allows you to
exchange song data between
different sequencers. User songs
recorded on the Clavinova are
SMF Format 0.
