The Songs and the Standard MIDI File format
11. SONG PLAY OPERATING MODE
The
Song
Play
operating
mode
is
where
you
can
listen
to
Songs
(played
directly
from
the
card),
and
play
along
with
the
Song
on
the
four
Realtime
(Keyboard)
tracks
(Upper
1–3,
Lower).
Since
the
microARRANGER
is
equipped
with
two
onboard
sequencers,
you
can
play
two
Songs
at
the
same
time.
This
is
very
useful
to
mix
between
two
Songs
during
a
live
performance.
THE SONGS AND THE STANDARD MIDI FILE
FORMAT
The
native
Song
file
format
of
the
microARRANGER
is
the
Standard
MIDI
File
(SMF),
an
universal
standard
set
by
all
manufacturers.
You
can
read
these
files
with
any
musical
instrument
or
computer.
A
difference
could
be
in
the
sound
played
by
each
track.
If
you
recorded
a
Song
with
the
microAR
‐
RANGER
(Song
mode),
using
only
General
MIDI
pro
‐
grams,
you
can
play
the
same
Song
on
virtually
any
other
musical
instrument
or
computer.
If
you
used
KORG
native
programs,
you
cannot
reproduce
the
same
sounds
on
instruments
from
other
brands.
When
you
read
SMFs
in
Song
Play
mode,
there
is
no
problem
reading
files
made
using
only
General
MIDI
sounds.
Sounds
could
be
different
when
playing
a
Song
made
on
a
different
instrument:
despite
the
wide
compatibility
of
microARRANGER
with
other,
non
‐
standard
formats,
differences
may
arise.
If
so,
go
to
the
Song
operating
mode
and
load
the
SMF.
Then,
manually
reassign
the
non
‐
matching
Programs,
replacing
them
with
similar
Programs
on
the
microAR
‐
RANGER.
Then,
save
the
SMF
again,
and
you
will
be
able
to
play
it
in
Song
Play
mode
with
the
correct
Pro
‐
grams.
TRANSPORT CONTROLS
You
can
use
the
separate
transport
controls
for
each
of
the
two
onboard
sequencers.
Use
the
SEQ1
controls
for
Sequencer
1,
and
SEQ2
controls
for
Sequencer
2.
See
for
more
information).
MIDI CLOCK
In
Song
Play
mode
the
MIDI
Clock
is
always
generated
by
the
internal
sequencer,
even
if
the
Clock
parameter
is
set
to
External
(see
127).
microAR
‐
RANGER
transmits
only
the
MIDI
Clock
message
gen
‐
erated
by
Sequencer
1.
