Start recording

When you press the RECORDER [PAUSE] switch, the song will play back from the measure you specified in step 2.

Recording will begin automatically when you reach the measure specified in step 5, so start playing a few measures earlier than the recording start measure.

Stop recording

When the recording end measure has passed, recording will stop automatically, and playback will resume. Press the RECORDER [PLAY/STOP] switch to stop playback.

To input a rhythm style chord, set the “Track” cell to “Chord.”

To input a rhythm style controller, set the “Track” cell to “Ctrl.”

The “Start Measure” cell specifies the beginning measure, and the “End Mea- sure” cell specifies the ending measure.

In the case of a track you are recording for the first time, you will be able to input as far as the measure you specify in the “End Measure” cell. If the track has previously been recorded, this cell will automatically be set to the last measure.

Recording the automatic accompa- niment without performing (Step Recording)

By using the Step Recording function you can input controllers such as automatic accompaniment chords and fills at the specified measures, without having to actually play the keyboard yourself. This means that you can record an automatic accompa- niment from the chords or chord symbols of printed music, even if you are not able to play the piano.
