Music Files That the RM-700 Can Use

 

Music files contains musical information such as how long the key for a 

corresponding pitch is played, the force applied to the key played, and 

other such information. Performance data is transmitted to the RM-700 

from music files saved in USB memory and CD-ROM, and played back 

without change as songs. This is different than a music CD, since the 

music file does not contain a recording of the sound itself. This makes it 

possible to change tempos and keys freely, allowing you to use it in many 

different ways.

 

Use of the song data supplied with the CD-ROM attached to this product 

for any purpose other than private, personal enjoyment without the 

permission of the copyright holder is prohibited by law. Additionally, this 

data must not be copied, nor used in a secondary copyrighted work 

without the permission of the copyright holder.

Please be aware that if you create derivative works that are based on 

existing copyrighted material, such as commercially available SMF music 

files, such works may violate copyright law if used for any purpose other 

than personal enjoyment. Roland takes no responsibility for any 

copyright violation you may commit by creating such works.

Roland’s original music file is made specifically for practicing the 

piano. Some follow an instructional curriculum, allowing for a 

complete range of lessons, such as “practicing each hand separately” 

or “listening to only the accompaniment.”

 

SMFs (Standard MIDI Files) use a standard format for music file that was 

formulated so that files containing music file could be widely compatible, 

regardless of the manufacturer of the listening device. An enormous 

variety of music is available, whether it be for listening, for practicing 

musical instruments, for Karaoke, etc.

* If you wish to purchase SMF Music Files, please consult the retailer 

where you purchased your RM-700.

 

“SMF with Lyrics” refers to SMF (Standard MIDI File) that contains the 

lyrics. When Music Files carrying the “SMF with Lyrics” logo are played 

back on the RM-700, the lyrics will appear in its display. 

 

VIMA TUNES is a Roland specification for music files that contains image 

and lyric data, allowing you to enjoy songs with lyrics and images 

simultaneously. When data bearing the “VIMA TUNES” logo is played 

back on a device that bears the same logo, lyrics can be shown on the 

screen of a connected external display or television, letting you enjoy 

karaoke or watch a slide show.

 

The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to provide a 

way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize 

the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound generating 

devices and music files that meets the General MIDI standard bears the 

General MIDI logo. Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be 

played back using any General MIDI sound generating unit to produce 

essentially the same musical performance.

 

The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 recommendations pick up 

where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced expressive 

capabilities, and even greater compatibility. Issues that were not covered 

by the original General MIDI recommendations, such as how sounds are 

to be edited, and how effects should be handled, have now been 

precisely defined. Moreover, the available sounds have been expanded. 

General MIDI 2 compliant sound generators are capable of reliably 

playing back music files that carry either the General MIDI or General 

MIDI 2 logo. 

In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does not 

include the new enhancements, is referred to as “General MIDI 1” as a 

way of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2. 

 

The GS Format is Roland’s set of specifications for standardizing the 

performance of sound generating devices. In addition to including 

support for everything defined by the General MIDI, the highly 

compatible GS Format additionally offers an expanded number of 

sounds, provides for the editing of sounds, and spells out many details 

for a wide range of extra features, including effects such as reverb and 

chorus. Designed with the future in mind, the GS Format can readily 

include new sounds and support new hardware features when they 

arrive. Since it is upwardly compatible with the General MIDI, Roland’s GS 

Format is capable of reliably playing back GM Scores equally as well as it 

performs GS music files (music files that have been created with the GS 

Format in mind).

 

XG is a tone generator format of YAMAHA Corporation, that defines the 

ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure and type 

of effects, in addition to the General MIDI 1 specification. XGlite is a 

simplified version of XG tone generation format. You can play back any 

XG music files using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind 

that some music files may play back differently compared to the original 

files, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.
