Creating your own song
The XP-10 is able to transmit General MIDI setup mes-
sages and GS setup messages from MIDI OUT. These
messages will reset the sound source to the General
MIDI System or GS Format initial settings. If you are cre-
ating a song for a General MIDI System / GS Format
compatible sound source, record a General MIDI setup
message or a GS setup message at the beginning of the
song. If this data is included at the beginning of the
song, the sound source will always be set appropriately,
and the song will play back correctly.
* There are several points that you need to be aware
of when recording General MIDI setup messages or
GS setup messages, and when recording the musi-
cal data. For details refer to “Cautions for recording
and playback”.
