Chapter 4 Recording and Saving the Performance

Redoing a Recording

Redoing a recording involves specifying a Track button you want to record over and then recording over again.

When you select a Track button and record over a track that has already been recorded, the newly recorded performance occupies a position extending from the location where you started recording to where you stopped recording.

1. Using the Bwd [ ] and Fwd [ ] buttons, move to the measure where you wish to start recording.

Press the Reset [ ] button at the beginning of the song.

2. Press the Rec [ ] button.

The Rec [ ] button’s indicator lights up.

The 5 Track screen appears.

To stop recording, press the Stop [ ] button.

3. Touch the Track button for the track you want to record over.

< > will appear above the selected Track button.

The Rec [ ] button and Play [ ] button indicators will flash, and the KF- 90 will be ready for recording.

4. Begin recording.

If you redo a recording with Automatic Accompaniment, specify a chord in the left-hand section of the keyboard, or press the [Start/Stop] button.

If you don’t use automatic accompaniment, press the [Sync/Reset] button to extinguish the indicator, and then press the Play [ ] button.

The mark < > changes < >.

5. To stop recording, press the Stop [ ] button.

To record the ending over again, press the Intro/Ending [1] or [2] button.

If you want to erase a previous performance before recording over it, take a look at “Erasing the Sound Recorded at Specific Track Buttons” (p. 102).

With songs in the KF-90's internal memory, the Track buttons are shown when the Rec [ ] button is pressed.

For information on the Track buttons, take a look at “What is a Track Button?” (p. 97).

The song’s tempo is determined when the song is first recorded. Even when each track is recorded over with the tempo changed, the song is played back at the tempo selected when the song was first recorded. To change the tempo of a song that has already been recorded, refer to “Changing a Song’s Basic Tempo” (p. 122).
