Part 9: Lyrics, chords and score

The MP-10 PRO will let you read lyrics, chords and music score via the touch

screen or video output . This allows you to sing or play another instrument

while the Song continues .

Lyrics and chords formats

Lyrics and chords can be contained in a MIDI file, or in a text file associated

with the MIDI or MP3 file. You can read them on the internal display or an

external video .

Choosing a language

You can read text in various languages, but you can force the recognition of

characters in your own language . This requires that you select the correspond-

ing extended character set .
To do this, you must simply choose your language, as you should have already

done when you first used your MP-10 PRO. Haven’t you done it, yet? Then go

to page 34, now!

Songs with embedded lyrics and chords

The MP-10 PRO can read lyrics and chords from MIDI files (MID and KAR

files) in the Solton, M-Live (Midisoft), Tune1000, Edirol, GMX, HitBit, and

XF formats, and the chord abbreviations of SMF in Solton, M-live (Midisoft),

GMX, and XF formats. Any other format could be read, but there is no war-

ranty text will be correctly rendered .
When lyrics and chords are contained in a Song, the Lyrics/Chords (

) icon

appears in the player’s header:
