music data for use with the device in advance. As a result, this device may not play them back precisely as
their producers or composers originally intended.

Tuning
Unlike an acoustic piano, this instrument does not need to be tuned by an expert (although the pitch can be
user-adjusted to match other instruments). This is because the pitch of digital instruments is always
maintained perfectly. However, if you feel there is something abnormal concerning the keyboard touch,
contact your Yamaha dealer.
Compatible Format
“GM (General MIDI)” is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. “GM System Level 2” is a
standard specification that enhances the original “GM” and improves Song data compatibility. It
provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and integrated
effect processing.
XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically
to provide more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects, and
to ensure compatibility of data well into the future.
GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major
enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well
as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and
openended expandability for the future. This instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file
containing lyric data is played.
“SFF (Style File Format)” is an original Style file format by Yamaha which uses a unique conversion
system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. “SFF
GE (Guitar Edition)” is an enhanced format of SFF, which features improved note transposition for
guitar tracks.
