together. For example, the collection of web pages whose

XG
Yamaha XG is an extension of the GM (General MIDI)
format. Its greater polyphony, more voices, and use of
effects enhances the compatibility between MIDI
devices. When a song in the Yamaha XG format is played
on another XG-compatible tone generator or synthesizer,
it plays and sounds as the original composer/creator
intended.
