Data Compatibility
This section covers basic information on data compatibility: whether or not other MIDI devices can playback the
data recorded by PF-500, and whether or not the PF-500 can playback commercially available song data or song data
created for other instruments or on a computer.
Depending on the MIDI device or data characteristics, you may be able to play back the data without any problem,
or you may have to perform some special operations before the data can be played back. If you run into problems
playing back data, please refer to the information below.
Basic Check Points
The data and the MIDI device must match in regards
to the items below.
• Sequence format
• Voice allocation format
Sequence Format
The system which records song data is called “sequence
format.”
• Playback is only possible when the sequence format
of the disk matches that of the MIDI device.
[Common Sequence Formats]
■
SMF (Standard MIDI File)
This is the most common sequence format.
• Standard MIDI Files are generally available as one
of two types: Format 0 or Format 1.
• Many MIDI devices are compatible with Format
0, and most commercially available software is
recorded as Format 0.
• The PF-500 is compatible with both Format 0 and
Format 1.
• Performance data recorded on the PF-500 is saved
in the SMF format 0 in a floppy disk.
■
ESEQ
This sequence format is compatible with many of
Yamaha’s MIDI devices, including the PF-500 series
instruments. This is a common format used with
various Yamaha software.
• The PF-500 is compatible with ESEQ.
