CYCLE RECORD

This mode allows you to have specified recording measures continuously repeated. Thus you can record measures by adding notes during any cycle.

1.On the REALTIME RECORD display, specify “REC” for a track number you are going to record, and “PLAY” for track numbers you wish to have played back.

2.Press the CYCLE: OFF button.

The display looks similar to the following.

3.Use the START MEASURE and buttons to specify the beginning measure number.

4.Use the END MEASURE and buttons to

specify the ending measure number.

The measure in which the END command has been stored can also be specified.

5.Press the START/STOP button.

If the metronome is on, cycle recording of the specified measures begins after a two-measure count.

Recording does not start even when the keyboard is played.

6.Play the keyboard.

The specified measures are repeated, during which time you can record by adding notes little by little at the correct timing (over-dubbing).

If you wish to erase all the performance data from the specified measures, press the CLEAR button.

If the CYCLE: ON button is pressed, it changes to OFF. This button does not function during recording.

To return to the REALTIME RECORD display, press the EXIT button.

Cycle record can also be started from the REALTIME RECORD display whenever the CYCLE: ON indication is shown.

7.When you have finished recording, press the REC STOP button on the display, or turn off the PROGRAM MENUS button.
