Recording a Song
The CP has
Easy Recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder and is just as easy to use. The CP will record all of your playing as well as any changes you make to the front panel settings during the recording.
Advanced Recorder is useful for creating more complex recordings. Advanced Recorder gives you the ability to record on
up to 16 independent tracks separately. In addition, with Advanced Recorder you can edit your recorded data one measure or even one note at a time. There is also a step recording mode in which you can enter notes or other MIDI data events one step at a time for even more accurate control.
Song data created on other instruments in the Standard MIDI File format (SMF) can also be loaded into the CP’s recorder to be played or edited. The CP’s recorder can read both Type 1 and 0 SMF files.
Please read the following sections carefully to learn more about the capabilities of the Easy and Advanced recorder.
