I had some problems getting my PR300S to read standard MIDI files generated by a Yamaha sequencer. However I discovered (through the assistance of this good group) that if I opened the troublesome file using a regular Cakewalk Music Creator program and then saved it that the problems disappear and the PR-300S can read it just fine.

I put the disk in the PR-300S last night. The disk contains several MIDI files from http://www.classicalarchives.com/index.html, but the message I get is something along the lines of "cannot play this type of file." Noel, Ed, Mark, do you guys (or anyone) know why this is? These appear to be normal MIDI files (they play on my computer), and other MIDI files play just fine on the PR-300S. They claim that these files play on any MIDI player. Am I doing something wrong or is there some switch I need to throw to get these to play? Maybe someone else can grab one of the files, try it on theirs, and see if they get the same message. Thanks for the help.
