to SMF and save it to USB flash memory, however, it becomes capable of producing
score display and can be used with the lesson features.
NOTE
• Different flash memory areas are used to store user songs and external song files
transferred from a computer. User songs cannot be directly transferred to the exter-
nal song file flash memory area, and vice versa.
