How the PC-80 software synthesizer is structured
The PC-80 software synthesizer consists of a Synth that you can play
manually from the PC-80’s keyboard, and a Player that can play back SMF
data or be played from external software.
The Synth and Player each have their own sound generator.
The synth sound generator is selected when you start up the Synth for
manual playing, and the SMF playback sound generator is selected when you
start up the Player.
