Recording procedure

1.In the START RECORDING area on the dis- play, select the rhythm part you want to record first.

BAS: BASS

AC1–5:ACCOMP 15

DR1, 2: DRUMS 1, 2

The metronome sound starts and the display looks similar to the following.

2.Adjust the tempo.

The tempo is shown on the display as q =.

The tempo can be freely adjusted when you play back the rhythm pattern, so record at the tempo which is easiest for you to play.

3.Select the sound.

For the DRUMS part, only sounds from the DRUM KITS sound group can be selected.

For the ACCOMP and BASS parts, select sounds from groups other than the DIGITAL DRAWBAR sound groups.

The sounds marked with # represent special guitar performances and changing them to other sounds may result in an unnatural, awk- ward sound expression.

4.Record the part.

The specified number of measures are repeat- edly played back, during which time any newly played notes are added to those already recorded. The current measure number is shown on the display as “MEASURE=”.

Record the performance in C major for correct chord progressions during playback. Follow the KEY SETTING procedure if you wish to record the performance in a different scale.

PITCH BEND, MODULATION (KN2600) (except for the DRUMS part) effects are also recorded.

The SUSTAIN ON/OFF is also stored (except for the DRUMS part).
