Playing SMF data

Direct playback from external media such as a floppy disk

When you wish to playback SMF data that is compat- ible with the GM/GS/XG standards, set “Bank Map” (Global P0: Basic Setup, System Preference page) to GM(2).

1Press the [S.PLAY] key to enter Song Play mode.

2Press the [EXIT] key to display the P0: Prog/Mix page.

3Make sure that the media containing the SMF data can be detected.

If you want to play back data from a floppy disk, insert the floppy disk into the TRITON STUDIO’s disk drive. If you want to play back data from an external SCSI device, make sure that the external SCSI device is con- nected. Also make sure that the media contains SMF data.

If there is no SMF data in the floppy disk, or if there is no SMF data in the currently selected directory, no file- name will be displayed (as shown below).

To move to a directory that contains SMF data, press the [MENU] key, and then press “P3: Select Directory” to display P3: Select Directory.

4Press the “File Select” popup button. From the file list, choose the filename that you wish to play back.

5Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key.

Playback will begin. At this time, all songs displayed in the “File Select” popup button will playback consecu- tively (if “Auto Start” is checked).

6Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key once again to stop playback.

Starting/stopping playback for each song

In the P0: Prog/Mix, Preference page, uncheck Chain to next file” or “Auto Start,” and press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key. Playback will begin, and will stop when each song ends. For details on these settings (PG p.125).

Drive select

Press the drive select button, and select the drive that contains the data that you want to play.

Then press the Open button or Up button to move between levels, and find the desired SMF.

When the SMF file (make sure that the extension is

.SMF) appears in the LCD screen, press the [EXIT] key, and move to P0: Prog/Mix.

“File Select” will show the SMF filenames.

If no jukebox list has been created, no filenames will be displayed if the “Jukebox” check box is checked. Uncheck the “Jukebox” check box.

Mute/Solo function

In P0: Prog/Mix, the Program T01–08 and T09–16 pages provide PLAY/MUTE buttons and SOLO ON/OFF but- tons that allow you to play and mute tracks 1–16 in the same way as in Sequencer mode.

You can use these when you wish to mute the melody track and play the part yourself on the keyboard (“minus- one play”), or when you wish to audition a track (p.82).

You can use the “Solo Selected Track” page menu com- mand to audition only the currently selected track. This provides a convenient way to hear the parameter settings and effect settings of a track (PG p.52, 124).
