Converting MIDI Data to a Standard Form (Strip XP)

Disklavier PRO pianos record highly precise control information (XP events) that becomes part of the MIDI song files. This data is used to achieve accurate playback on the Disklavier PRO, but is not used when the file is played back on general MIDI devices.

When you edit the song with external MIDI products (for example a software sequencer), the relationship between the note data and the XP event as well as the actual performance may not be maintained. There may be cases in which songs edited in this manner cannot be played back normally, depending on the instrument’s settings. In such cases, use the Strip XP function to remove the XP event to convert the song to standard MIDI format before using it for playback. Strip XP also makes it possible to reduce the size of MIDI files when desired.

Note: Once the XP event is stripped, the original data cannot be restored. Before converting valuable music data, be sure to backup the original data.

1 Select the song to be converted (→ pg. 12 “Selecting a Song” in “Quick Guide”), and then tap on or .

2 Tap on .

3 Tap on	.
