Importing from a Standard MIDI File |249
Importing a Standard MIDI File into a Chord Variation
1 Go to the Style Record > Import > Import SMF page.
2 Use the From Song parameter to choose a MID file to import. Touch the
Select button to open the file selector.
Only Standard MIDI Files in format 0 can be loaded.
3 Select the Initialize checkbox if you want all settings of the target Style
Element (like Key/Chord, Chord Table, Sounds…) to be reset when loading
the SM F.
It is a good idea to select the Initialize parameter when importing the first
Chord Variation of a Style Element, and deselect it when importing the sub-
sequent Chord Variations. This way, the initial parameter will be reset only
once.
4 Use the To E/CV pop-up menu to choose a target Chord Variation (CV) inside
a Style Element (E).
5 After having set all the parameters in this page, touch the Execute button to
import the Standard MIDI File into the target Chord Variation.
Importing a Standard MIDI File ‘separated by Markers’ into a
Style
As an alternative to importing single Chord Variations, you can import a
whole Style as an SMF separated by Markers, i.e., a single SMF containing all
the Chord Variations (Variation 1, Variation 2, etc.) each one separated by a
Marker (the same events used in Song Play mode).
1 While in this page, touch the Select button, and choose the Standard Midi
File to be imported.
