Introduction

This document provides recommendations for creating music data compatible with instruments

utilizing the Yamaha “XG” format.

In order to create music data that takes the fullest advantage of the XG format, you’ll need to have

a complete understanding of the XG Specifications. We therefore urge you to refer both to this

document and to the XG Specifications as you are creating your data.

Note that the XG Specifications includes a number of new features which are not defined in the

“GM System Level 1 Recommendations” (MIDI 1.0 Recommended Practice RP-003) of the JMSC

(Japanese MIDI Standards Committee, now AMEI—the Association of Musical Electronics

Industry). These new features are marked “*Non-GM1*” in this document.

Models currently compatible with the XG Specifications include:

Yamaha MU50 (Mid-range reference module, utilizing XG Level 1)

Yamaha DB50XG (Sound card daughterboard, utilizing XG Level 1)

Yamaha MU80 (High-end reference module, utilizing XG Level 2)
