Music Files That the HP307 Can Use
What Are Music Files?
Music files contains musical information such as how long the key for a corresponding pitch is played, the force applied to the key played, and other
such information. When the performance data (music file) is sent by the USB memory or CD-ROM, the song will be played exactly as specified by the
data. This is different than an audio CD, since the music file does not contain a recording of the sound itself. This makes it possible to change tempos
and keys freely, allowing you to use it in many different ways.
Regarding Copyright
Use of the song data supplied with the CD-ROM for any purpose other than private, personal enjoyment without the permission of the copyright
holder is prohibited by law. Additionally, this data must not be copied, nor used in a secondary copyrighted work without the permission of the
copyright holder.
Please be aware that if you create derivative works that are based on existing copyrighted material, such as commercially available SMF music files,
such works may violate copyright law if used for any purpose other than personal enjoyment. Roland takes no responsibility for any copyright
violation you may commit by creating such works.
The HP307 Allows You To Use the Following Music Files
VIMA TUNES
VIMA TUNES is a Roland specification for music files that contains
image and lyric data, allowing you to enjoy songs with lyrics and
images simultaneously. When data bearing the “VIMA TUNES” logo
is played back on a device that bears the same logo, lyrics can be
shown on the screen of a connected external display or television,
letting you enjoy karaoke or watch a slide show.
* This instrument (HP307) is not able to play back VIMA TUNES
images.
* You can specify whether the recommended tones will be assigned
automatically (p. 63).
SMF Music Files
SMFs (Standard MIDI Files) use a standard format for music file that
was formulated so that files containing music file could be widely
compatible, regardless of the manufacturer of the listening device.
An enormous variety of music is available, whether it be for
listening, for practicing musical instruments, for Karaoke, etc.
SMF with Lyrics
“SMF with Lyrics” refers to SMF (Standard MIDI File) that contains the
lyrics. When Music Files carrying the “
” logo are played back
on a compatible device (one bearing the same logo), the lyrics will
appear in its display.
The HP307 come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators.
General MIDI
The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to
provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs,
and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices.
Sound generating devices and music files that meets the General
MIDI standard bears the General MIDI logo. Music files bearing the
General MIDI logo can be played back using any General MIDI sound
generating unit to produce essentially the same musical
performance.
General MIDI 2
The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 recommendations pick up
where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced
expressive capabilities, and even greater compatibility. Issues that
were not covered by the original General MIDI recommendations,
such as how sounds are to be edited, and how effects should be
handled, have now been precisely defined. Moreover, the available
sounds have been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound
generators are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry
either the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo.
In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does
not include the new enhancements, is referred to as “General MIDI
1” as a way of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2.
GS Format
The GS Format is Roland’s set of specifications for standardizing the
performance of sound generating devices. In addition to including
support for everything defined by the General MIDI, the highly
compatible GS Format additionally offers an expanded number of
sounds, provides for the editing of sounds, and spells out many
details for a wide range of extra features, including effects such as
reverb and chorus. Designed with the future in mind, the GS Format
can readily include new sounds and support new hardware features
when they arrive. Since it is upwardly compatible with the General
MIDI, Roland’s GS Format is capable of reliably playing back GM
Scores equally as well as it performs GS music files (music files that
have been created with the GS Format in mind).
XGlite
XG is a tone generator format of Yamaha Corporation, that defines
the ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure
and type of effects, in addition to the General MIDI 1 specification.
XGlite is a simplified version of XG tone generation format. You can
play back any XG music files using an XGlite tone generator.
However, keep in mind that some music files may play back
differently compared to the original files, due to the reduced set of
control parameters and effects.
