files, such as defined below.
SMF Music Files
The Standard MIDI File (SMF) format was designed to
provide a means for exchanging performance data
among a wide variety of devices. In addition to the song
files described earlier, the AT-80SL/60SL is also capable
of playing back any Standard MIDI File compatible with
the General MIDI 2 or GS formats.

NOTE
Never eject a disk while reading or writing is in progress,
since that can damage the magnetic surface of the disk,
rendering it unusable. (The disk drive's indicator will light
up at full brightness when the drive is busy reading or
writing data. Ordinarily, the indicator will be less brightly lit,
or be extinguished.)
