Formats and functions
GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI
standard which ensures that any GM-compatible
music data can be accurately played by any GM-
compatible tone generator, regardless of manufac-
turer. The GM mark is affixed to all software and
hardware products that support GM System
Level.
XGlite
As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified ver-
sion of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone genera-
tion format. Naturally, you can play back any XG
song data using an XGlite tone generator. How-
ever, keep in mind that some songs may play back
differently compared to the original data, due to
the reduced set of control parameters and effects.
USB
USB is an abbreviation for Universal Serial
Bus. It is a serial interface for connecting a
computer with peripheral devices. It allows
“hot swapping” (connecting peripheral
devices while the power to the computer is
on).
STYLE FILE
The Style File Format combines all of
Yamaha’s auto accompaniment know-how
into a single unified format.
Touch Response
The exceptionally natural Touch Response
feature, with a convenient front panel on/off
switch, gives you maximum expressive level
control over the voices.
