Track 1 Real-time RecordingVariations

The following describes a number of different variations you can use when recording to Track 1 using real-time recording. All of these variations are based upon the procedure described under “To record with real-time recording” on page E-52.

In place of step 4, press the SYNCHRO/FILL-IN NEXT button. Auto-accompaniment and recording will both start when you play a chord on the accompaniment keyboard.

To record using an intro, ending, or fill-in

During recording, the INTRO/ENDING 1/2, SYNCHRO/ FILL-IN NEXT, and VARIATION/FILL-IN 1/2 buttons (pages E-34 to 35) can all be used as they normally are.

In place of step 4, press the SYNCHRO/FILL-IN NEXT button and then INTRO/ENDING 1 or INTRO/ENDING 2 button. Auto-accompaniment will start with the intro pattern when you play a chord on the accompaniment keyboard.

To start Auto Accompaniment part way into a recording

In place of step 4, press the SYNCHRO/FILL-IN NEXT button and then play something on the melody keyboard to start recording without Auto Accompaniment. When you reach the point where you want accompaniment to start, play a chord on the accompaniment keyboard to start Auto Accompaniment.
