Press the START/STOP button to end recording
when you are finished playing.
If you make a mistake while recording, stop the record
operation and begin over again from step 1.
NOTE
Using real-time recording to record to a track that already
contains recorded data replaces the existing recording
with the new one.
Track 1 Contents After Real-time
Recording
In addition to keyboard notes and accompaniment chords,
the following data is also recorded to Track 1 during real-
time recording. This data is used whenever Track 1 is played
back.
Tone number
Rhythm number
INTRO, SYNCHRO/ENDING, NORMAL/FILL-IN,
VARIATION/FILL-IN button operations
Pedal operations
Memory Capacity
The keyboard has memory for approximately 5,100 notes. You
can use all 5,100 notes for a single song, or you can divide
memory between two different songs.
The measure number and note number flash on the display
whenever remaining memory is less than 100 notes.
Recording automatically stops (and Auto Accompaniment
and rhythm stops playing if they are being used) whenever
memory becomes full.
Memory Data Storage
Anything previously stored in song memory is replaced
whenever you make a new recording.
Memory contents are retained as long as the keyboard is
supplied with electrical power. Unplugging the AC adaptor
when batteries are not loaded or when loaded batteries are
dead cuts off the keyboards electrical power supply,
causing all data stored in song memory to be deleted. Be
sure to plug the keyboard into an electrical outlet with the
AC adaptor before replacing batteries.
Turning off the keyboard while a record operation is in
progress causes the contents of the track you are currently
recording to be lost.
