You can also write the selected Keyboard set as the new keyboard tracks in a desired arrangement, so that the set is automatically selected when you pick an arrangement. Simply select the arrangement, then the keyboard set, then press the REC/WRITE button and write the new arrangement into a USER bank location.

Working With The Backing Sequencer

How about recording and playing back an arrangement, complete with chord, control, and keyboard data? That’s what the Backing Sequencer is all about! Not only that, but once you’ve done it, you can add a few extra tracks, save your Backing Sequence as a Standard MIDI file and attach it to the email you send daily to your friends.

The Accessory Disk that is included with the iS40 contains a Backing Sequence Demo. When you turn off the iS40, you will lose any Backing Sequence data, so it’s important that you backup ALL your data!
