Indication Value Explanation
SMF Play Mode
Specifying the Keyboard Tone for Song (SMF) Playback (SMF Play Mode)
This setting species the tone that you play on the keyboard while a song is playing back. Normally you will use the “Auto-Select” setting.
This determines whether the setting that is most suitable for the internal song or most suitable for external data is selected when you play back a song whose le format is
SMF.
MEMO
You can also switch the SMF Play Mode by holding down the [ò] button and pressing the [–] [+] buttons.
* If the SMF playback mode is set to “External” some eects are not applied to the sound, meaning that the tonal character might dier from when you usually play the
keyboard.
Auto-Select
(default setting)
Either “Internal” or “External” is selected automatically depending on the song that you play back.
Internal
When you play back a song, the tone that you play from the keyboard changes to the tone that is saved in the song.
This is recommended when you play back an internal song or a song that you recorded on this piano.
External
The tone that you play from the keyboard does not change when you play back a song.
This is recommended when you play back external data such as commercially available music data.
