Memory Capacity
This keyboard can hold a total of approximately 12,000 notes, which can be divided between a lesson recording and a performance recording. Note that you can use up all 12,000 notes for either the lesson recording or the performance recording. If you do, you will not be able to record anything for the other type of recording.
•The recorder shares the same memory area with the song bank area used for storing song data transferred from a computer. Because of this, you may not be able to store the full 12,000 notes of data.
•When the number of remaining notes becomes less than about 100 while you are recording, the RECORDER indicator and the track/part indicator (L, R) will start to flash at high speed.
•Recording will stop automatically if memory becomes full.
If you are using Auto Accompaniment or a rhythm, they will also stop playing at this time.
IMPORTANT!
•Never turn off the keyboard while it is recording or standing by for recording to the keyboard. Doing so will cause all of the song data currently stored in the Song Bank user area to be deleted.
