an electronic device to exchange data or connect to
the Internet wirelessly using radio waves. Wi-Fi
offers the advantage of eliminating the complexity of
making connections with network cables by using
wireless connection. Only products that complete
Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability tests can carry the
“Wi-Fi Certified” trademark.

XG
Yamaha XG is an extension of the GM (General
MIDI) format. Its greater polyphony, more voices,
and use of effects enhances the compatibility
between MIDI devices. When a song in the Yamaha
XG format is played on another XG-compatible tone
generator or synthesizer, it plays and sounds as the
original composer/creator intended.
