Changing the Parts Assigned to the
Track Buttons During SMF Playback
(Track Assign)
Ordinarily, when playing back SMF music files for Roland
Piano Digital instruments (p. 99), the left-hand part is assigned
to the Track [Left] button, and the right-hand part is assigned to
the Track [Right] button. However, right-hand and left-hand
part assignments in certain SMF music files may differ.
If these are set to "Auto," and as a result you are unable to use
the track buttons to control the left- and right-hand parts (p. 46)
properly, change the setting to "2/1 Part" or "3/4 Part."
This setting can be used for SMF format songs other

Tones (Recommended Tone)
You can connect a commercially available USB CD drive to
the DP-990, and play back separately sold CD-ROMs created
for the VIMA (VIMA TUNES).
Songs on VIMA CD-ROM (VIMA TUNES) are programmed
with "recommended tones" suitable for each song.
When you select a song from a VIMA CD-ROM (VIMA
TUNES), recommended tones will be assigned to the DP-990's
[Strings], [Voice], and [Others] tone buttons, and these three
tone buttons will blink.
When you press a flashing Tone button, the recommended
tone is then selected, enabling you to perform the selected
song using a tone matched to that song as it plays back.
You can set the DP-990 so that the recommended tones are
automatically assigned or not assigned.
