Recording settings (select “USr”)

Specifying the tone and tempo for recording

The [REC] button’s indicator will light, the [PLAY] button’s indicator will blink, and you will be in recording-standby mode.

Start recording

6 Recording will start when you either press the [PLAY] button or play the

keyboard.

The MP-60 counts down two measures, then recording starts.

Note that recording will also begin as soon as you play anything on the keyboard, even if you do not press the [PLAY] button. There is no count sound played when you start in this manner.

When recording begins, the [PLAY] button and [REC] button indicators will light. Go ahead and perform on the keyboard.

Stop recording

7 Press the [PLAY] or [REC] button.

The indicators for the [PLAY] and [REC] buttons will go dark.

Play back the recorded performance

8 Press the [PLAY] button.

You will hear the recorded performance.

Once again press the [PLAY] button, and playback will stop.

NOTE

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.

If you record without specifying the recording track, the performance will be recorded to the [1] button.

If you want to record the right and left hands separately on separate recording tracks, refer to “Selecting and Recording the Track for Each Hand Separately” (p. 24).

When a recorded performance is played back, the metronome sounds the sound that was selected when the recording was made.
