Using the Recorder

TUTORIAL

2. USING THE RECORDER

The CA piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder, and it is just as easy to use. The CA piano records a song as digital data instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument. Because the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when you play it back. You can, for example, adjust the tempo without changing the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded.

Once you understand the recorder, you will find it to be a useful tool for both practicing and playing the piano.

RECORDING A SONG

Press the REC button when you are ready to record. The LED indicator will start flashing telling you that the piano is ready to record.

number that will be recorded.

Now play some music on the piano. The recorder will automatically start recording with the first note you play.

Press the PLAY/STOP button when you’re finished recording. The CA piano will stop recording and the LCD display will momentarily display a message “Stopping” while the song is saved to memory.

If you make a mistake, you can record your piece again. Just repeat the same procedure. The second recording will completely erase the first one.

PLAYING BACK A SONG

The CA Piano will be ready to play back the song as soon as you’re finished recording.
