Playing back songs (Standard MIDI
Files)
Your E-60/E-50 contains all kinds of functions for “cus-
tomizing” the songs you play back via easy-to-use rou-
tines. Let us first look at the playback functions proper.
(1) Press the FINDER [SONG] button.
You can also press the [SONG] field on the main page
to select songs.
The display changes to:
(2) If it isn’t already highlighted, press the
[INTERNAL≈MEMORY] field in the upper right cor-
ner.
The E-60/E-50 is shipped with a few example songs
that can be used here. This function is also available
for songs you record or save to the internal memory
(or a memory card).
The display shows a list of 5 songs (Standard MIDI
Files) in the internal memory. If you prefer to listen to
one of your own songs on floppy disk, insert it into
the drive and press the [FLOPPY] field.
To listen to a song on memory card, insert the card
and select [EXTERNAL¥MEMORY], then continue with
step (3).
(3) If the name of the song you want to listen to is
already displayed, press its line.
(4) To display the next 5 songs, press the [˚] field in the
lower right corner.
You can press this field as many times as necessary
(or until it is no longer displayed). You can also use
the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.
To return to a previous group of 5 songs, press [ø] (or
use the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons).
Quick location of the song you need
There are several ways of quickly locating the song you
are after:
■Sorting files
Press the [SONG¥NAME], [ARTIST], [GENRE] or
[FILE¥NAME] field to sort the song files according to
artist names, kind of music (Genre) or file name
(which is usually rather incomprehensible). The right
column now contains the selected entry (only one of
them can be displayed along with the song name).
Continue with step (3) to select the song you want to
listen to.
■Using the Index function
After performing step (2), press the [INDEX] field in
the upper left corner.
The display changes to:
(5) Press one of the displayed field names to narrow
down your search to songs that belong to the
selected category (“Index”).
The display now returns to the page shown under
step (1) above. This time, however, only the songs
belonging to the selected Index are displayed.
(6) Continue with step (3) to select the song you want
to listen to.
Note: Press the [ALL] field to display all songs in the selected
memory.
■Using Play & Search
If you only know the melody of the desired song,
press the [FINDER] field under step (1).
