Chapter 3 Recording a Performance
■ Recording Selected Track buttons
When you press the [Rec] button, all Track buttons are set to be recorded, but by selecting Track buttons that are not to be recorded, you can then record only on the specific Track buttons you want.
For example, you can record each hand’s performance to different Track buttons, or record over only certain Track buttons in a previously recorded performance.
Only sounds from Drum set tones and Rhythm sounds can be recorded to the [Drums (R)] button.
1. While holding down the [Rec] button, and turn off the indicator light for the Track button, whether the [Drums (R)], [Chord (1)], or [ (2)] button, for any track not to be recorded. The [Rec] button’s indicator lights up, the [Play] button’s indicator flashes, and the FP-3 is put into recording standby.
With the FP-3 in standby, go on to record the performance according to the procedures as described in “Recording a Performance” (p. 33), “Recording a Performance Using Rhythms” (p. 34) or “Recording a Performance Using Rhythms (in Split Play)” (p. 35), starting from Step 3.
The performance is recorded only to the Track buttons whose indicator was lit.
Recording along with internal songs
You can also record your own performance as you play along with the internal piano songs.
When recording to specific Track buttons, the sounds on the selected Track buttons are not played. For example, you can record what you are playing with your right hand as you listen to the left-hand part.
1. With the [Song], [-] and [+] buttons select the song.
2. Hold down the [Rec] button and light the indicator for the track button of the track you intend to play yourself.
The [Rec] button’s indicator lights up, the [Play] button’s indicator flashes, and the FP-3 is put into recording standby.
NOTE
When you record additional material without erasing the previously recorded sounds, the song is recorded at the initially recorded tempo.
