Chapter 9: Saving and Loading From Disk

Page 180

SIZE field shows the size of the MIDI file to be saved. The FREE field

shows the amount of free space on disk.

The SAVE AS field has two options:

MIDI FILE TYPE 0: This type of MIDI file has only one track

containing all of the sequence events, each event having a

unique MIDI channel assignment. This option should only be

used if you intend for your MIDI file to be played on a simple

MIDI file player.

MIDI FILE TYPE 1: This type of MIDI file contains one track for

each track in the original MPC60 sequence file. This option is

preferred if you want to maintain track separation, as when

transferring sequences to and from an external sequencer.

The DRUM CH field determines the MIDI channel assignment for events

saved from MPC60 drum tracks. In the MPC60, drum tracks need no

MIDI channel assignment, but all events in MIDI files do. When the MIDI

file is saved, any events in drum tracks (that have no other MIDI channel

assignment) will take the channel and port assignment from this field.

Normally, 10A should be used because this is the standard channel and

port assignment for drum events in MIDI files.
