recorded in Standard MIDI File (SMF) format. There are many sources
of SMF songs, including disks for sale from professional musicians and
publishers, songs shared among musicians and hobbyists, and Internet
sites that feature SMF songs available for download. Also the Disk
Recorder gives you the ability to record on up to 16 independent tracks
separately.
Insert a floppy disk in the drive and press the DISK button. The
LCD display shows as follows.
