Specifying the Keyboard Tone for Song (SMF) Playback (SMF Play Mode)

This setting specifies the tone that you play on the keyboard while a song is playing back. Normally you will use the "Auto-Select"
setting. This determines whether the setting that is most suitable for the internal song or most suitable for external data is
selected when you play back a song whose file format is SMF.
MEMO
You can also switch the SMF Play Mode by holding down the [ s ] button and turning the [ ] knob.

Explanation
Either "Internal" or "External" is selected automatically depending on the song that you play back.
When you play back a song, the tone that you play from the keyboard changes to the tone that is saved in the
song. This is recommended when you play back an internal song or a song that you recorded on this piano.
The tone that you play from the keyboard does not change when you play back a song.
This is recommended when you play back external data such as commercially available music data.
Your performance is recorded to "Internal Memory" and played back on the piano. You can overdub your left-
hand performance onto your right-hand performance, and then listen to the playback of both hands together.
(p. 14)
Your performance is recorded to a USB flash drive as audio data. You can listen to your recorded piano
performance on a computer or audio player, use it to create a CD, or publish it on the internet. (p. 16)
