Song Bank Tunes
You can transfer song data from your computer to the
keyboard. You can store up to 5 tunes (about 70 kilobytes) as
Song Bank tunes 50 through 54. For SMF data you purchase
or create, you need to use an SMF Converter to convert it to
CASIO format before transferring it to the keyboard.
To install the SMF Converter

On the computer to which you plan to connect,
install the SMF Converter that comes on the CD-
ROM that comes bundled with the keyboard.
On the CD-ROM, double-click SMFConv-e.exe, and
then follow the instructions that appear on your
computer screen to install SMF Converter.
* Before installing SMF Converter, be sure to read the contents of
the “smfreadme.txt” file in each language folder on the CD-ROM.
For information about using SMF Converter, double-click

you installed SMF Converter. You can also access user
