MIDI standards
Standard MIDI Files
Standard MIDI Files (abbreviated as SMF) are a practical way of exchanging
songs between different instruments and computers. HAVIAN uses the SMF
format as its default MIDI Song format, so reading a song from a computer,
or saving a song that a computer software can read, is not a problem at all.
The internal Player is compatible with SMFs format 0 (all data in one track;
it is the most common format) and 1 (multitrack). HAVIAN 30 can read SMFs
in Song Play mode and modify/save them in Sequencer mode. It can save a
Song in SMF format 0 from Sequencer mode.
When in Song Play mode, HAVIAN 30 can also display SMF lyrics in Solton,
M-Live (Midisoft), Tune1000, Edirol, GMX, HitBit, and XF formats, and the
chord abbreviations of SMF in Solton, M-Live (Midisoft), GMX, and XF format.

Standard MIDI Files usually have the .mid or .kar filename extension.
The General MIDI standard
Some years ago, the musical instruments world felt a need for some further
standardization. Then, the General MIDI Standard (GM) was born. This exten-
sion of the basic MIDI sets new rules for compatibility between instruments:
▪ A minimum of 16 MIDI channels was required.
▪ A basic set of 128 Sounds, correctly ordered, was mandatory.
▪ The Drum Kit had a standard order.
▪ Channel 10 had to be devoted to the Drum Kit.
A most recent extension is the GM2, that further expands the Sounds data-
base. HAVIAN 30 is sound-compatible with the GM2 standard.
