The CVP-98/96/600 can playback the following types of software.
• Sequence formats: SMF (format 0 and 1), ESEQ

Refer to the section “MIDI and Data Compatibility” (page 8 in the Refer-
ence Manual) for information on the voice allocation formats and sequence

tem Level 1) (page 8 in the Reference Manual) or of Yamaha DOC voice
