When a SMF is loaded into a song in Disk mode, the
program bank that is selected will differ depending on the
"Bank Map" (Global 0–1d) setting. When playing/loading
SMF data that conforms to the GM specifications, set "Bank
Map" to GM(2).
Sequencer mode
In Disk mode when you convert a song into a Standard MIDI
File and save it, you can choose either format 0 or format 1.
• If KRONOS song data that was saved as a format 1 SMF
file is loaded into another device, the track configuration
may be different than it was before being saved. This is
because MIDI tracks that contain no musical data are
omitted, and the remaining tracks are moved into the
unused tracks. This will not affect the playback itself.
• If song data that was saved by another device as a format
1 SMF file is loaded into the KRONOS, the track
configuration may be different than it was before being
saved. This is because tracks that contain no musical data
are omitted, and the remaining tracks are moved into the
unused tracks. This will not affect the playback itself.
When exchanging sequence data between two KRONOS, we
recommend that you save the sequence data in the
KRONOS's native format ("Save SEQ").
When sequence data is saved in the KRONOS's native
format, all of the settings and patterns unique to the
KRONOS will be saved, which will ensure a higher level of
reproducibility than when the data is saved as a Standard
MIDI File ("Save to Standard MIDI File").
Parameter changes and other recorded data is included in the
song data as System Exclusive events, so it can be saved to
or loaded from disk as usual. Exclusive messages can also be
loaded or saved as SMF (Standard MIDI File) data ("Load
Standard MIDI File," "Save Song as Standard MIDI File").
This allows recorded System Exclusive events to be saved as
SMF data, or exclusive messages included in SMF data to be
converted into song data.
During playback, this data can be transmitted to an external
MIDI device, or used to control track parameters or effect
parameters of the song.
