7.

Move the cursor to “MIDI Ch.” and select the MIDI
channel of the data to be imported using the TIME/
VALUE dial.

Only data associated with the specified MIDI channel
will be extracted from the selected SMF and imported as
a drum pattern.

fig.20-043ad

In the case of SMFs supporting the GM, GS, or XG
standards, drum-type performance data is generally
assigned to MIDI channel 10. By setting the MIDI
channel to 10 in such a case, you can ensure that only the
drum data will be extracted from the SMF. (Note that
drum-type data will not necessarily be assigned to
channel 10, and it will be important to confirm the actual
channel in advance.)

8.

Move the cursor to “Type” and use the TIME/VALUE
dial to select “DRUMS.”

9.

Move the cursor to “Pattern” and use the TIME/VALUE
dial to select the drum pattern to which the data is to be
imported.

It will not be possible to select preset drum patterns as
destinations for SMF import.

10.

Press [F4] (GO).

Importing of the selected SMF will begin. When the
message “Complete!” appears, it indicates that the
import has been completed.
