Memory Function

You can store up to two separate songs in memory for later playback. The memory function records your keyboard play in real time, as you play it.

Tracks

The memory of this keyboard records and plays back notes much like a standard tape recorder. There are two tracks, each of which can be recorded separately. Besides notes, each track can be assigned its own tone number. During playback you can adjust the tempo to change the speed of playback.

NOTES

Track 1 is the basic track, which can be used to record Auto Accompa- niment along with the melody. Track 2 can be used for melody only, and is for adding to what is recorded in Track 1.

Note that each track is independent of the other. This means that if you make a mistake while recording, you need to re-record only the track where the mistake was made.
