If you layer a newly recorded performance without erasing the recorded song, the song tempo and beat will be stored with the settings that were recorded first.

About the “USr” display

When you stop recording, the

“ ” display will change

to “ .”

The “.” in the lower right of the display indicates that there is already a recorded performance.

Refer to the previous page if recording a song that starts with pickup beats (where the song begins on a beat other than the first beat of the measure).

If you record without specifying the recording track, the performance will be recorded to the [Left] button. If you want to record the right and left hands separately on separate recording tracks, refer to “Recording the Right-Hand and Left-Hand Parts Separately” (p. 36).
