Additional functions

Recording your performance

You can record what you play on your C-190 and then play it back whenever you like. There are four song memories that can be selected using the [1]~[4] buttons.

The Recorder not only memorizes the notes you play, but also the sounds you use.

Recording

(1)Hold down the [REC] button (it starts flashing) while pressing a [1]~[4] button to select the song memory.

Be sure to select a memory whose button doesn’t light while you are holding down the [REC] button. Otherwise, you erase the recording contained in that memory.

(2)Release the [REC] button (it keeps flashing).

(3)Press the [PLAY] button to start recording.

(4)Start playing.

(5)Press [PLAY] again (or [REC]) to stop recording.

Note: The C-190 now processes your recording, which may take 2~3 seconds. While the data are being stored, the keyboard doesn’t respond to your playing.

Playing back a recorded song

To listen to your new (or a previously recorded) song, proceed as follows:

(1)Press and hold the [PLAY] button while pressing a [1]~[4] button to select a song memory.

Be sure to select a memory whose button lights, which indicates that the memory in question contains data.

(2) Press [PLAY] again to stop playback.

Note: The recorded song data are not transmitted to the C-190’s MIDI OUT port.

Using the audio outputs

The C-190 comes with two audio outputs that may come in handy for two things:

•When you need to perform in a large venue and fear that the C-190’s on-board amplification system is not powerful enough, or when you are asked to con- nect the C-190 directly to the PA system;

•To record your playing (either with or without Recorder backing) to cassette, MD, etc.

To do so, connect the C-190 as follows:

L

R

Cassette deck, MD recorder, external ampli-

fier, mixing console

If the external device is mono, use only the OUTPUT L/ MONO socket.

Note: Connecting jacks to the outputs does not switch off the internal amplification system.
