318 APPENDIX / About the Standard MIDI File Format

The Standard MIDI File Format is a standard which has recently been implemented by a number of software and

hardware makers. This standardized format allows song data to be transferred easily between different sequencers —

even between sequencers made by different manufacturers.

The SY85 supports two Standard MIDI File types, known as format 0 and format 1. In the former type, all

sequencer data is recorded as a single track, which may include data for more than one MIDI channel. In the latter,

an unlimited number of tracks may be used, each of which may contain data for more than one channel. The SY85

is capable of loading data saved in either of these formats. Data saved by the SY85 using the Standard MIDI File

format will be saved as format 0.

Loading data: To load sequencer data saved in an Standard MIDI File format, select load operation type Other

Load from the disk menu. The file to be loaded must meet the following conditions:

• The File must be loaded from a disk formatted by the SY85, or from a 3.5 inch 2DD floppy disk in

MS-DOS

or PC-DOS

format. (Refer to the paragraph titled Acceptable disk formats, below.)

• It must have been saved as Standard MIDI File format 0 or format 1. Files saved using Standard MIDI File

format 2 cannot be loaded.

• The MIDI clock must be used as the basic clock.

• The file must have a resolution of 1/96, 192, 288, 384, 480 of a quarter note.

• The file must have an extension .X01 through .X99.

When a format 0 file is loaded, the data for each MIDI channel is loaded to the corresponding track (channel 1

to Track 1, channel 2 to Track 2, and so on). Only data for channels 1 through 8 is loaded, however; any data

for channel 9 through 16 will be ignored.

When a format 1 file is loaded, tracks are loaded in sequence. It will therefore be necessary to reset the

channel assignments for each track when loading is complete.

All data loaded to a single track in this way will be transmitted by the SY85 on a single channel. For this

reason, even if one track of a format 1 file contains data for two or more MIDI channels, all this data will be

played back by the SY85 using a single channel. Since this may mean that sequencer parts may not play back as

desired, we recommend that format 0 be used for the transfer of data whenever possible.

No exclusive data is loaded from Standard MIDI Files of either format type.

Saving data: Data may be saved in Standard MIDI File format to any of the disk types described in Acceptable

disk formats, below. To save sequencer data in Standard MIDI File format, select save operation type Other

Save from the disk menu. The data for each track is saved to the corresponding MIDI channel (Track 1 to

channel 1, Track 2 to channel 2, and so on). No exclusive data is saved when this format is used.

Files saved using the Standard MIDI File format are given a file extension .X01 through .X99, which allows

the SY85 to recognize the file’s format. Other programs, however, may not be able to recognize the file as a

Standard MIDI File unless the .MID extension is used; when transferring data saved by the SY85 to another

device where it will be used by such a program, you should first rename the file using a personal computer or

other means.

Acceptable disk formats: Standard MIDI Files may of course be saved to or loaded from disks formatted by the

SY85. Disks formatted by a personal computer may also be used, as long as they are 2DD disks in

MS-DOS

or PC-DOS

format. Disks formatted by an Apple Macintosh

may used as long as they are format-

ted using a SuperDrive or other disk drive device capable of formatting a disk in MS-DOS

format.

To use Standard MIDI Files saved by the SY85 on an Apple Macintosh

, use ResEdit or a similar utility to

change the file type attribute to that of a MIDI file.
