As long as your sequencer can load MIDI File Format sequences, you will be able to load and play the songs included on the disks. If you need a MIDI File Format song player program, the MIDI Synth Utilities disks do include a program capable of loading and playing these songs. Please be aware MSE did not create the song files included on the MFFS disks. These were sequenced by various musicians with a variety of different computers and programs. Format 0 songs have a single track of song data with no definitions on the track and up to 16 MIDI channels in the track. Format 1 songs are the more complex of the MIDI files. The format 1 specification supports multiple tracks, track definitions and abilities to set tempo, meter and key signature including tempo and meter maps.
