MIDI file with the extension “.MID” from the disk into
the internal memory.

With the SMF format 0 file, a file can be played

this case the data is not loaded into the internal
memory, it is merely read directly from the disk and
played back. This is particularly convenient for
auditioning songs quickly. For more information on
