Makin g Style File Format Settin g s (PARAMETER)
The Style File Format (SFF) combines all of Yamaha’s auto accompaniment (Style playback) know-how into
a single unified format. Setting the SFF related parameters determines how the original notes are converted to
the actual sounded notes based on the chord you specify in the Chord area of the keyboard. The conversion
flow is shown below.
The instructions below apply to step 5 of the Basic Procedure on page 31 .
NOTE
The parameters you can set here are compatible with the SFF GE format. This is why the Style files created on this instrument can be played back only on
instruments which are compatible with SFF GE.
