11. Turn the TIME/VALUE dial to select the SMF to be
imported, then press [ENTER].
When importing GM/GS/XG-compatible SMFs, MIDI
Channel 10 is generally assigned as the channel used for
rhythm performances. Thus, only the data on MIDI Channel
10 in the SMF is isolated and imported by the BR-900CD.
Note that the data on other channels is disregarded.
12. Turn the TIME/VALUE dial to select the import-
destination song pattern, then press [ENTER].

of the display, while the lower line shows what is being
processed.
