Korg music workstation, sampler SMF Standard Midi File playback, Structure of Song Play mode, 120

SMF (Standard MIDI File) playback

In Song Play mode, you can play back Standard MIDI Files (SMF) directly from media such as floppy disk or hard disk. You can select this mode if you simply want to play back the SMF without editing it.

If the EXB-MOSS is installed, the special bank INT-F can be used in Song Play mode as well. For details on the bank INT-F parameters, refer to the EXB-MOSS owner’s manual.

The parameter settings of Song Play mode are not backed up when the power is turned off. If you wish to save the program, track parameter, and effect set- tings of the song, use the page menu command “Save Template Song” to save them.

While playing back data from a disc inserted in the CDRW-1 option, do not subject the TRITON STUDIO to physical shock or vibration.

If you play the keyboard or controllers, the data may not play back correctly.

The structure of Song Play mode

As shown in the diagram below, Song Play mode consists of tracks 1–16, effects and arpeggiator.

About SMF

SMF data in format 0 or format 1 can be played back in Song Play mode.

The TRITON STUDIO recognizes only files with an exten- sion of .MID as SMF data. Be sure that the filename exten- sion is .MID.

About MIDI

Track status settings in Song Play mode

You can select whether the musical data played by a track, or the data produced by operating the TRITON STUDIO’s keyboard and controllers will sound the TRITON STU- DIO’s internal tone generator, and/or will sound an exter- nal tone generator.

When the “Status” of a track is set to INT, the data played back by that track and the data produced by operating the keyboard or controllers of the TRITON STUDIO will play and control the TRITON STUDIO’s internal tone genera- tor. When the “Status” of a track is set to EXT or BTH, the data played back by that track and the data produced by operating the keyboard or controllers of the TRITON STU- DIO will play and control an external tone generator. (The MIDI channel of the external tone generator must match the “MIDI channel” of the TRITON STUDIO track that is set to EXT or BTH.) With a setting of BTH, the external tone generator and the TRITON STUDIO’s own tone gen- erator will be played and controlled simultaneously. (☞PG p.126)

Synchronization with external devices

In Song Play mode, the TRITON STUDIO will be the mas- ter (the controlling device) regardless of the MIDI Clock setting (Global P1: MIDI “MIDI Clock”) (☞PG p.266).

Insert effects, Master effects

The TRITON STUDIO’s effects can be used in the same way as in Sequencer mode. (☞p.141, PG p.131)
