Procedure

1. Make all the initial settings.

Before you begin to record, select the voice you want to record (or voices if you will be using Dual or Split mode). Make any other desired settings (reverb, effect, etc.) as well. You might also want to set the volume.

You can also adjust the playback volume using the [MASTER VOLUME] slider.

2. Engage Record Ready mode.

Press the [REC] button to engage Record Ready mode. This automatically selects an empty song for recording and makes the RIGHT part active. If an empty song does not exist, Song U01 will be selected. Recording does not actually start yet.

The SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will flash at the current METRONOME tempo setting.

You can turn on the metronome in this step, and adjust the tempo by using the [TEMPO/FUNCTION , ] buttons. (Range: 32 – 280)

Record Ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC] button again.

3. Start recording.

Recording will begin automatically as soon as you play a note on the keyboard or press the SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] button. The current measure’s number will appear on the display while recording.

4. Stop recording.

Press either [REC] or SONG [STOP] button to stop recording. When recording is stopped, dashes appear in the display in succession to indicate that the recorded data is being saved to the instrument automatically. After the data is saved, the song name (U01 – U03) appears in the display. The recorded part’s indicator will glow green to indicate that it now contains data. (Record mode is disengaged automatically.)

CAUTION

Do not turn off the power of the instrument when dashes appear in the display in suc- cession. Doing so may delete all song data in the instrument, including external songs (page 43).
