About file types that can be loaded to the Electone This Electone is compatible with Style File Format data. The Style File Format (SFF) is Yamaha's original Style data format, which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. In this format, each rhythm pattern (called a "Style") is made up of fifteen sections (Intro 1 - 3, Main A - D, Fill In A - D, Break, Ending 1 - 3) as rhythm pattern variations. Each of these fifteen sections in turn has eight different parts, made up of MIDI sequence data. You can load any patterns (Styles) which have been created by an SFF-compatible instrument.
