Recording Without a Disk
The Clavinova has internal RAM memory (about 25KB) that allows a
limited amount of recording — even if a disk is not loaded — up to ap-
proximately 2,500 notes, if no other data is recorded. If you enter the
Song Record mode without inserting a disk, CVP MEMORY will be
indicated in the SONG display as shown below, and the Quick Record-
ing, Track Recording and Punch-in/out Recording functions will become
available.
• Chord Sequence data cannot be re-
corded to internal RAM memory.
• The Song Name function cannot be
engaged for data recorded to internal
RAM. However, the Track Edit func-
tion (page 122) and the Initial Edit
function (page 124) can be engaged
for data recorded to internal RAM.
When entering the Song Play mode after recording the song to inter-
nal RAM, the CVP indication is shown in the SONG section of the dis-
play, allowing you to playback normally.
If you insert a song disk (and select a song number) when the internal
RAM contains recorded song data, a “Delete CVP MEMORY?” confir-
mation prompt will appear. Press YES to delete the song data recorded
to the internal RAM. The song data recorded to internal RAM also can
be erased by turning the power off. If you wish to keep the recorded
data, use the Song Copy function (page 136) to copy the recorded data to
disk.
