Using SmartMedia™ Memory
SmartMedia is a card-type memory medium used for storing data.
When a SmartMedia card is inserted in this instrument’s card slot, MIDI data created on the
instrument can be saved to or loaded from the memory card. SmartMedia can also be used to
transfer song data downloaded from the Internet to the instrument, where it can be used with
the performance assistant technology (page 16) and Lesson (page 39) features described in
the Quick Guide. Furthermore, user songs saved to SmartMedia memory in MIDI file format
can also be used with these features.
In this section we’ll look at the procedures for setting up and formatting SmartMedia memory
cards, as well as for saving and loading data to and from them.
