Realtime recording on a track

Preparations for recording

Before you begin recording, you need to make track settings.

Be sure to turn off the Global mode protect setting (p.37).

Song No. and name

Track Select

Category

Bank/Program

1In Sequencer mode, select P0: Play/REC, and select the Program T01–08 tab (or Program T09–16 tab).

2Press “Song No. and name,” and select the song that you wish to record.

Use numeric keys [0]–[9] to enter the song number, and press the [ENTER] key. If you press the popup button, you can select from the popup menu.

If you select a song number that has not yet been recorded, the Create New Song dialog box will appear. Press the OK button.

To set the song name, use the page menu command “Rename Song.” (p.38 “Assigning a name (Rename)”).

3Use “Track Select” to select the track that you wish to record.

4Use “Bank/Program” or “Category” to select the program for the track you wish to record.

Use the Prog.1–8 tab to select a program for tracks 1–8, and the Prog.9–16 tab to select a program for tracks 9–16.

You may find it convenient to use the page menu command “Load Template Song” and use the set- tings from a template song (p.67).

If necessary, select the Mixer tab and set the pan and volume. The status and MIDI channel of each track are set by P2: Trk Param MIDI Ch tab “Status” and “MIDI Channel.”

It is a good idea to set tracks 1–16 to “MIDI Chan- nel” 1–16 respectively. (This is the default.) Tracks that are set to the same MIDI channel will sound simultaneously when either track is recorded or played.

Make sure that “Status” is INT or BTH.

5Press the [REC/WRITE] key.

The TRITON will enter record-standby mode. The PLAY/MUTE/REC button of the track(s) you specified in step 3 will change from PLAY to REC.

The metronome will begin sounding. If it does not, use the Preference tab “Metronome Setup” to make metronome settings. The default values are “Sound” Only REC, “BUS Select” L/R, “Level” 127, and “Precount” 2. With these settings, there will be a two-measure pre-count, the metronome sound will be output at the maximum level from the L/ MONO and R jacks (and from the headphones), and will be heard only during recording.

6Set “Tempo Mode” to Manu (manual), and as you listen to the metronome, use “ =” to set the tempo.

7Set “Meter” to the desired time signature.

8If necessary, set “Reso” (resolution) to the desired realtime quantize setting (p.68).

This completes preparations for recording. The recording procedure will depend on the “Over- write” – “Multi (multitrack recording)” setting explained below. Press the [REC/WRITE] key to temporarily cancel record-standby mode, and try out the various recording methods described below.

The time signature will be recorded when you actually begin recording. If you cancel recording during recording-standby or during the precount, the time signature specified in 7 will not be recorded.

Overwrite

Use this method when recording for the first time.

1Make the necessary settings in “Preparations for recording.”

2In the Preferences tab “Recording Setup,” select Over Write.

Location

3In “Location,” specify the location at which you wish to begin recording.

If no musical data has been recorded it will not be possible to change the location, so proceed to step 4.
