Hi everyone!
My Yamaha keyboard PSR6700 can read DOC and regular songs saved to its floppy drive but is unable to recognize GM files or any regular Midi files unzipped from the internet. Every time I try to load one of those disks, it will say:"Type Error or Unformat!"
I have tried to use Cubabase or other software to convert the files from format 0 or 1 (vice versa) to no avail. Is there any solution to that problem? I would greatly appreciate any good advice from anybody at the forum. Thanks.

Hi Mike40

Psr-6700 has still no GM bank

GM is a bank with 128 defined sounds in 16 groups of sounds A 8 sounds

Without GM bank can take place also no sound allocation

001 - 008 = Piano
009 - 016 = Chromatic Percusion
017 - 024 = Organ
025 - 032 = Guitar
033 - 040 = Bass
041 - 048 = Strings
049 - 056 = Ensamble
057 - 064 = Brass
065 - 072 =Reed
073 - 080 = Pipe
081 - 088 = Synth Lead
089 - 096 = Synth Pad
097 - 104 = Synth Effects
105 - 112 = Ethnic
113 - 120 = Percussive
121 - 128 = Sound Effects

Hi Robby:
I really appreciate your quick reply. My PSR 6700 recognizes HD or DD disks only if save my files from its sequencer, not from the computer. I will check the websites you referred me to. Thanks again.
