From Song Mode, touch the Song area(upper left corner) - I know it says MIDI, but it is used for both.
Then navigate to the location on your USB device and "Select" the song.

It plays using the same buttons as MIDI.

Sure works on my Pa900 and did before I upgraded to 101, but sure I would upgrade because there are always bugs fixed not mentioned.

You must be in Song Mode and then you load an MP3 exactly the same way using the same buttons and touch places on the screen as a MIDI song.

And - you also play the MP3 the same way. Tempo buttons will speed up or slow down by 30% too. Again same buttons.
