12 − Tempo and MIDI SMF playback The Standard MIDI File (SMF) format is used to exchange MIDI song data between sequencers, including sequencer software, and other MIDI devices. Follow the procedures explained in "USB import (SMF files)" on page 83 to transfer an SMF file from a connected computer to the 2488neo's FAT partition and then load it from the FAT partition to the SMF player. To open the SMF PLAYER screen, highlight SMF PLAYER from the SYNC/MIDI menu and press the YES/ENTER key. On this screen, you can set the SPEED and PLAYER ON/OFF items. The SPEED parameter is a percentage of the original tempo. ••The SPEED item setting allows the speed of the entire piece to be adjusted including any tempo changes included as part of the SMF. ••If the PLAYER item is ON, you can use the 2488neo's SMF playback function to control external MIDI devices. If you connect the audio outputs of those devices to the 2488neo's audio inputs, you can then record those externally-generated MIDI tracks. The LENGTH item on the screen shows the number of bars in the SMF. The numbers 1-16 in the lower part correspond to MIDI channels, with those used by the SMF shown in inverse. NOTE When the SMF player is ON, you cannot use the FREE metronome mode or a tempo map. 95 TASCAM 2488neo
