Using the MUSIC PLAYER

MUSIC PLAYER
Your Hammond SKX has the ability to play Music Files in one of two formats:
1. .WAV 44.1kHz 16-bit
2. .MP3 44.1kHz 64 ~ 192kbps
You can listen to the Music Files (or “Songs”) as they play, add vocals or other instruments to them live (“karaoke”),
or play the SK along with them.
NOTE: If you wish simply to play a Song, the .MP3 format will be adequate; however, if you wish to play along
on the SK with the Song, the .WAV format is recommended, as .MP3 files may “stutter” or play intermittently if
keys or Touch Tabs are pressed during playback.
Ë Using the Music Player
In order to play Song files using the Music Player, a USB Flash Drive containing compatible Song data must be
inserted into the USB Port on your SKX. The next few pages will explain more about this.
Copying a Music File to a USB drive
1. Insert a USB Flash Drive that has been previously formatted for use with the SKX into an open
USB Port on your computer.
2. Find any audio files with either the “.wav” or “.mp3" extension you wish to copy.
3. Copy the files from your source location (usually a hard drive) to the following folder on the USB
Flash Drive:
\hammond\sk\audio\
NOTE: The number of files may vary according to the size of the files. Numerically, up to 99 files can
be stored.
