Casio WK3500 Musical Instrument User Manual

Using the SMF Player
The letters SMF stand for Standard MIDI File, which is a file format that allows MIDI data to be shared between different
software and sequencers. There are actually three SMF formats, named SMF 0, SMF 1, and SMF 2. This keyboard supports the
SMF 0 format, which is the one that is most widely used today, and so all mentions of SMF data in this manual refer to SMF 0
format data.
SMF format music data can be stored in the keyboards built-in Flash memory. Data stored in Flash memory can be played back
using the SMF Player Mode. You can also load SMF data from a SmartMedia card or floppy diskette into the keyboards user area
and then play it back using the SMF Player Mode. The follow shows the maximum number of files that can be stored on each type
of media.
Flash Memory: 200 files*
SmartMedia Card: 255 files*
Floppy Diskette (WK-3500 only): 112 (2DD diskette)* or 224 (2HD diskette) files*
* Note that the number of files you can store in memory also depends on the size of each file. If your files are very large, you may
be able to store fewer than the number of files indicated above.
IMPORTANT!
Note that CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. shall not be held liable for any loss of data stored in Flash memory, or on a
SmartMedia card or a floppy diskette (WK-3500 only).
