5. Song Play mode
In Song Play mode you can load Standard MIDI Files (SMF)
from floppy disk or external SCSI device, and play them
directly as they are being loaded. A jukebox function is pro-
vided to playback these SMF files in any order you specify.
You can also use the arpeggiator or realtime controllers dur-
ing playback. In Song Play mode you can playback SMF
data and make related settings.
The TRITON is able to playback SMF format 0 or format 1
data.
0–1: Prog. 1–8 (Program T01–08)
0–2: Prog. 9–16 (Program T09–16)
Here you can make settings for SMF playback, and make
basic settings such as selecting the program for each track.
0–1a: Location [001:01:000...999:15.191]
This is the current location of the SMF. From the left, this is
the measure, beat, and clock. Modifying these values will
change the current location.
When you change the location, a Song Position Pointer
message will be transmitted.

This indicates the time signature at the current location of
the SMF.
