You can use Song Memory to record your lesson play (lesson recording) and to record your keyboard play along with the Auto Accompaniment you are using (performance recording).

Parts and Tracks

How data is recorded to Song Memory and the type of data that is recorded depends on whether you are performing a performance recording operation or a lesson recording operation.

Lesson Recording

With lesson recording, you use the LEFT/TRACK1 button and the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button to select recording of only the left-hand part, only the right-hand part, or both the left- hand and right-hand parts.

Performance Recording

With performance recording, Song Memory operates like a tape recorder or sequencer. In this case, you can use the LEFT/ TRACK1 button and the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button to select the Song Memory track you want to record to.

Performance recording records the data shown in the illustration below, using two memory tracks.

Data recorded in track

Since each track is independent of the other, you can edit a recording by re-recording only one of the tracks.

Using the SONG MEMORY Button

When performing a performance recording or lesson recording, you will need to use the SONG MEMORY button to select recording or playback. Each press of the SONG MEMORY button cycles through the song memory options in the sequence shown below.

Song Memory Capacity

Song Memory can hold a total of approximately 13,000 notes, which can be divided between a lesson recording and a performance recording. Note that you can use up all 13,000 notes for either the lesson recording or the performance recording. If you do, you will not be able to record anything for the other type of recording.

When the number of remaining notes becomes less than about 100 while you are recording, the SONG MEMORY indicator and the track/part indicator (L, R) will start to flash at high speed.

Recording will stop automatically if Song Memory becomes full.

If you are using Auto Accompaniment or a rhythm, they will also stop playing at this time.

IMPORTANT!

Never turn off the keyboard while it is recording or standing by for recording to Song Memory. Doing so will cause all of the song data currently stored in the SONGS user area to be deleted.
