Operation Guide 3 Singing with Song Playback-Setting Up This section explains how to set up for your singing performance with Songs, using Song selection and Vocal Harmony settings. As is the case in Chapter 1, the settings made in this section can be collectively stored in the Registration Memory as one song setting (page 86). Setting Up Song Playback Songs-MIDI Song and Audio Song For this instrument, "Song" refers to MIDI or audio data which include preset songs, commercially available music files, etc. Not only can you playback a song and listen to it, but you can also play the keyboard or sing along with Song playback. There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio Songs. MIDI Song A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a recording of the actual sound itself. The performance information refers to which keys are played, at what timing, and at what strength-just as in a musical score. Based on the recorded performance information, the tone generator (of the instrument, etc.) outputs the corresponding sound. Since MIDI Song data contains the information such as keyboard part and Voice, you can play more effectively by viewing the score, turning the particular part on or off, or changing Voices. Audio Song An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in recording cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. Audio Songs can be played back on portable music players and many other devices, making it easy for you to let others hear what you have played. If you want to play back a Song in a USB flash drive, connect the USB flash drive containing Song data to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal beforehand. NOTE Before using a USB flash drive, be sure to read "Connecting USB Devices" on page 107. 66 PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner's Manual
