Standard MIDI File
A file of MIDI data that can be read and used by a
number of different MIDI devices and computers.
Tone Generator
An electronic device that can generate tones or
instrument voices.

An interface for connecting an external “plug and
play” device. The Disklavier is equipped with three
TO DEVICE ports with USB 2.0 standard and one
TO HOST port. An external storage device, such as
USB flash memory, can be used with the Disklavier
by connecting it to a TO DEVICE port. Also the
Disklavier enables you to enjoy a variety of MIDI
features by connecting a computer to TO HOST
port.

expressing various instruments.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) is a technology that allows
an electronic device to exchange data or connect to
the Internet wirelessly using radio waves. Wi-Fi
offers the advantage of eliminating the complexity
of making connections with network cables by
using wireless connection. Only products that
complete Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability tests can
carry the “Wi-Fi Certified” trademark.
WPS
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a standard
established by the Wi-Fi Alliance, which allows
easy establishment of a wireless home network.
XG
Yamaha XG is an extension of the GM (General
MIDI) format. Its greater polyphony, more voices,
and use of effects enhances the compatibility
between MIDI devices. When a song in the
Yamaha XG format is played on another XG-
compatible tone generator or synthesizer, it plays
and sounds as the original composer/creator
intended.
