Recording

The process by which your playing on the TRITON’s keyboard and controllers is captured on the tracks or patterns of a song as data is called “recording.”

Recording on a track, and recording on a pattern

Recording on a track

There are two ways to record on a track: realtime recording and step recording. You can choose from a further six types of realtime recording.

In addition, you can use event editing to modify data that has been recorded or to insert data, and use track editing operations such as Create Control Data to insert data such as bend, after touch, and control changes.

Recording on a pattern

There are two ways to record on a pattern: realtime recording and step recording. For realtime recording, only one recording type (loop) is available.

In addition, you can use event edit operations to mod- ify data that has been recorded or to insert data.

The page menu command “Get From Track” can be used to take musical data from a desired area of a track, and use it as the musical data for a pattern. Con- versely, the page menu commands “Put to Track” and “Copy to Track” can be used to place or to copy the musical data of a pattern in a track.

Realtime recording

This is a method of recording in which your playing on the keyboard and your operations of controllers such as the joystick are recorded in realtime.

This method of recording is normally used one track at a time, and is called single track recording.

As an alternative, multitrack recording allows you to simultaneously record multiple channels of data onto multiple tracks. This is the method you will use when using the RPPR function to record multiple tracks of musical data at once, or when you playback existing sequence data on an external sequencer and record it onto the TRITON’s sequencer in realtime (p.64, p.66, p.73).

Overwrite

With this method, the musical data previously on the track is overwritten by the newly recorded data. When you perform overwrite recording on a previ- ously-recorded track, its musical data will be replaced by the newly recorded data.

Normally you will use this method to record, and then modify the results by using other types of real- time recording or event editing.

Overdub

With this method, the newly recorded musical data is added to the existing data.

When you perform overdub recording on a previ- ously-recorded track, the newly recorded data will be added to the previously-recorded data.

It is best to select this method when you wish to add control data, or to record tempo data onto the mas- ter track. This lets you record data without erasing the existing data.

Manual punch-in

With this method, the musical data previously on the track is overwritten by the newly recorded data. While the song is playing, you can press the [REC] key or a connected pedal switch at the desired loca- tion to start or stop recording.

Auto punch-in

With this method, the musical data previously on the track is overwritten by the newly recorded data. First you must specify the area that will be re- recorded. Then playback the song, and recording will occur automatically at the specified area.

Loop All Tracks

This method lets you continue recording as you add musical data.

Recording will occur repeatedly over the specified area.

Multi

Multitrack recording allows you to simultaneously record onto multiple tracks, each with a different channel. This method can be used with overwrite, overdub, manual punch-in, and auto punch-in recording.

Step recording

This is a method of recording where you specify the note timing, note length, and velocity etc. in the LCD screen, and use the keyboard to input the pitches.

Only note-on/off data can be recorded with this method.

Event Edit and Create Control Data

Note data is the only type of data that can be recorded in step recording. However as ways to record other types of data outside of realtime, you can use the Event Edit and Create Control Data functions.

Event Edit is intended as a way to edit previously- recorded data, but you can also use it to modify pro- gram numbers or insert control changes.

Create Control Data is a function that lets you create and insert controller data that changes smoothly between two specified values over the specified length of time. This is used to input bend, after touch, and control change data etc.
