● SMF ChToBass
Selects which MIDI channel (1 - 16) of the SMF playing
information is directed to the internal bass program of the
MRS-1266. Information for the channel selected here will
not be present at the MIDI OUT connector. When this
parameter is set to OFF, no playing information is sent to the
bass program.
The diagram below shows a setting example for using the
MRS-1266 as an SMF player and using external sound
sources. In this example, the SMF playing information is
sent only to the MIDI OUT connector.

When an SMF is played in the above condition, the rhythm
song or rhythm pattern of the MRS-1266 will be played at the
same time. If you do not want to play the drum/bass sound,
set the [DRUM]/[BASS] status key to OFF or select an empty
rhythm song/rhythm pattern.
The diagram below shows a setting example for using the
MRS-1266 as an SMF player and using internal and external
sound sources together. In this example, MIDI channel 9 of
the SMF playing information is sent to the bass program,
MIDI channel 10 to the drum kit, and the other MIDI
channels to the MIDI OUT connector.

• When an SMF is played in the above condition, the SMF
playing information and the rhythm song or rhythm pattern
information of the MRS-1266 will sent to the internal drum
kit/bass program at the same time. If you want to use the
drum kit/bass program only for the SMF, you must first
select an empty rhythm song/rhythm pattern.
• If the SMF contains Program Change/Control Change/
Pitch Bend messages, the drum kit/bass program will re-
spond to these in the same way as to messages received
via the MIDI IN connector. (Pitch Bend messages affect
only the bass program.)
