Now, you are familiar with the basic recording procedure on the CA piano. For most recording purposes this may be all you need. The CA piano however, is equipped with other more powerful and flexible features that can be used to record and play back your performances. Continue on to learn more about the full capabilities of the recorder.

BASICS OF THE RECORDER

Let’s take a brief look at the recorders features.

TWO-TRACK FIVE-SONG RECORDER

The CA piano’s recorder is a 2-track5-song recorder. This means you can record up to five different songs, store them in memory, and play them back as you like.

Each song has two separate tracks called “Parts” that can be recorded separately. This lets you record for example, the left hand part first on one track, then record the right hand part next on the other track while listening to the first track.

When you record or play back a song, you can select which part (track) of which song you are going to record or play back. When you are recording, selecting the same part again to record will erase any previous recordings on that part. Because of this it’s important to remember; when recording both parts separately, after recording the first part be sure to select the second part to record, otherwise you will end up recording over the first part of the song.
