Recorder
3. RECORDER
The CE200 piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder, and it is just as easy to use. The CE200 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.
BASICS OF THE RECORDER
Let’s take a brief look at the recorders features.
TWO-TRACK THREE-SONG RECORDER
The CE200 piano’s recorder is a
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.
RECORDED INFORMATION
The CE200 piano records the following:
