6. USING THE RECORDER
The CN piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder, and it is just as easy to use. The CN piano records a song as digital data instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument. Because the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when you play it back. You can, for example, adjust the tempo without changing the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded.
Once you understand the recorder, you will find it to be a useful tool for both practicing and playing the piano.
RECORDING A SONG
(1)Press the REC button when you are ready to record. The LED indicator will start flashing telling you that the piano is ready to record.
(2) Now play some music on the piano. The recorder will automatically start recording with the first note you play. You can also start recording by pressing the PLAY/STOP button.
(3)Press the PLAY/STOP button when you’re finished recording. The CN piano will stop recording and the LED display will flash momentarily while the song is saved to memory.
(4)If you make a mistake, you can record your piece again. Just repeat the same procedure. The second recording will completely erase the first one.
PLAYING BACK A SONG
(1)Press the PLAY/STOP button to play back the song you have just recorded.
Press the PLAY/STOP button again to stop.
ERASING A SONG

(2) Turn the power on again while holding down the PLAY/STOP and REC buttons.
