Short: Yamaha XG Standard MIDI Files in GM/GS format Author: Yamaha Corporation/Edited by MIDICraft Uploader: craftbro midicraft demon co uk Type: mus/midi Architecture: m68k-amigaos file name: XGDEMOS1.lha requirements: Any GM/GS synth and an SMF player like MIDIPlay Long: Yamaha XG DEMO Standard MIDI Files (SMF) both file formats 0 and 1 All files have been edited to be General MIDI (GM) Standard compatible and contain SYSEX data for GM On together with the correct Contollers and PGM parameters for the Roland GM Standard.. These were edited using Music-X V2.0 on an Amiga 2000HD, 5Mb RAM, 540Mb SCSI internal HD and 730Mb external SCSI HD and then converted back to SMFs using the Music-X-to-MIDI converter which comes bundled with Music-X V2.0.. A Korg i3 Interactive Music Workstation was used for sequencing/re-configuring of GM parameters within each Music-X/SMF file.. Therefore, the XG setup within each file has been removed and General MIDI (GM) specific parameters has been implemented! A Yamaha Corporation Copyright (c) message and date has been embedded within each SMF to respect the author/s of the original files the original XG configured files didn`t possess this but this can only help Yamaha, no.. Stored here in LHA archive format.. These SMFs should play correctly on any General MIDI (GM) or GS synth or Soundcard.. ** SMF songs ** 1. Bird of Paradise by Snowy White (was in Thin Lizzy) 2. Gat Kirwani (cool Indian peice with excellent percussion) 3. Swamp Thing by The Grid 4.
