This section tells you how to make the settings required when

NAVIGATE CHANNEL (Default: 4)
When messages are received from a computer for play on
this keyboard, the navigate channel is the channel whose note
data appears on the display. You can select one channel from
01 to 16 as the navigate channel. Since this setting lets you

data to light on the on-screen keyboard guide, you can
analyze how different parts of an arrangement are played.

Expanding the Selections in the
Song Bank Tunes
You can transfer song data from your computer to the
keyboard. You can store up to 5 tunes (about 80 kilobytes) as
Song Bank tunes 65 through 69. For SMF data you purchase
or create, you need to use special CASIO conversion software
to convert it to CASIO format before transferring it to the
keyboard.
You can obtain a copy of the special CASIO conversion
software by downloading it at the Web page shown below.
After downloading, install the software on your computer.
CASIO MUSIC SITE
http://music.casio.com/
• In addition to the software itself, the CASIO MUSIC SITE
will also provide you with information about its installation
and use. You can also find out about the latest news about
your keyboard and other CASIO musical instruments, and
much more.
NOTE
• This keyboard supports SMF 0 format data.
• Voice Fingering Guide, on-screen fingering indicators,
voice announcement of evaluation points, and the
Practice Phrase function are not supported for
commercially available SMF data.
General MIDI Tone
The General MIDI standard defines the tone numbering
sequence, the drum sound numbering sequence, the number
of MIDI channels that can be used, and other general factors
that determine the sound source configuration. Because of
this, musical data produced on a General MIDI sound source
can be played back using similar tones and identical nuances
as the original, even when played on another manufacturers
sound source.
This keyboard conforms with General MIDI standards, so it
can be connected to a computer and used to play back General
MIDI data that has been purchased, downloaded from the
Internet, or obtained from any other source.
