Data format
This instrument can play back files of SMF Format 0 and Format 1 (Standard
MIDI file).
When playing songs copied to a USB flash memory device from a computer or
other device, the songs must be stored either in the USB flash memory's root direc-
tory or a first-level/second level folder in the root directory. Songs stored in these
locations can be played as song data. Songs stored in third-level folders created
inside a second-level folder cannot be played by this instrument.

large number of MIDI devices are com-
patible with SMF Format 0, and most
commercially available MIDI sequence
data is provided in SMF Format 0.
