ep-760 Recording your performance

You can easily record your performances. A recorded performance can be played back to hear your own playing, or to add additional parts.

The following recording methods are available on the ep-760:

•Recording just your own keyboard performance (→ “Recording a new song”, p. 20)

•Recording along with a built-in song (→ “Recording along with a song”, p. 21)

•Recording each hand separately (→ “Selecting/ recording each hand separately”, p. 22)

Notes regarding recording

•Only one song can be recorded.

•Recorded performances are erased when the power is turned off. If you want to keep your performance, you need to either record it on an external audio device, or use an external MIDI device to save the data on a floppy disk. For details, refer to “Connecting external devices”, p. 27.

If you attempt to record using a different built-in song when a performance has already been recorded, the following will appear, and the [●(Rec)] button’s indicator will flash.
