Technics sx-PR604/M - Manual (Page 95)

Playback of commercial song disks
DIRECT PLAY lets you enjoy playing commercially sold song
disks directly from a disk. It’s fast because you don’t have
to load the disk data into your instrument’s memory.
• DIRECT PLAY is possible from the following disks:
Standard MIDI File

SMF with LYRICS
SMF with LYRICS is a format in which character information
that is included with the MIDI data, such as karaoke lyrics,
can be displayed. This instrument supports this format,
making it possible to view the lyrics on the display while a
performance is played back.
GENERAL MIDI LEVEL 2 (GM2)
This instrument complies with GENERAL MIDI (GM) LEVEL
2 standards. GM LEVEL 2 is a uniform world standard for
MIDI sound generators that improves on existing GM stand-
ards, in order to realize an enhanced performance expres-
sion. Sound generators of this class can reproduce virtually
the identical conditions that were in effect at the time of re-
cording.
Equipment which conforms to GENERAL MIDI LEVEL 2
standards is indicated by the following logo.
• This instrument also conforms to GENERAL MIDI playback.
Outline of the procedure
1. Insert the disk into the Disk Drive slot. Push
it all the way in until you hear a click.
• On this instrument, if the normal display is active, it auto-
matically changes to the DISK MENU display when a disk
is inserted into the Disk Drive (initialized settings). The
PREFERENCES menu is used to specify which display
is shown when a disk is inserted.
