The SMF (Standard MIDI File) format is one of the
most common and widely compatible sequence for-
mats used for storing sequence data. There are two
variations: Format 0 and Format 1. A large number
of MIDI devices are compatible with SMF Format
0, and most commercially available MIDI sequence
data is provided in SMF Format 0.
