operational
mode

but-
ton,
while Function

also
simplify operation.
•
General
MIDI
System Supported
The JV
features a
General
MIDI
System
mode
that
makes
playing
music
with
other
MIDI
modules,
devices
and com-
puters
a
breeze.
•
The
General
MIDI
System
is
a
recommended
standard
for
the functions of
MIDI
sound
modules.
It
was
designed
for
the creation of
music
data that
is
not
restricted to
a
par-
ticular
manufacturer
or
model.
Sound modules and
song
data
that
conform
to
the
General
MIDI
System
carry the
GM
logo
(
Mi'gi
)-
Any
song
data bearing
the
GM
logo can
be played
on
any sound
module
also
bearing
the
GM
logo.
