Title: Standard Midi Files
Post by: dwardzala on June 05, 2009, 06:20:46 PM
I read in one of the other threads about a technique in which, with a MBR or BR-600, you can load a standard midi file to the unit and, because it only uses the rhythm track on channel 10 will strip the rest out and, viola, you have a new rhythm track.

Any idea where to find good (free) ones on the web?  I see alot of Karaoke sites listed when I google.

BR-600 - yes.  Micro BR - no (it doesn't support custom patterns so SMF import is not possible).
