Most commercially available SMF music data consists of
sixteen channels (parts).
Each channel contains a separate performance; for example,
channel 1 might contain strings and channel 2 bass, with the
drums on channel 10. The song data consists of these sixteen
channels of performances, played back simultaneously.

Normally, when you play back Roland SMF music data (p.
70), the melody is assigned to channel 4.
However, some commercially available SMF music data
assigns the melody channel to a different channel. In such
cases, you’ll need to change this setting to the channel that
is used by your music data.
