Recording to RIGHT/LEFT

This lets you record the right and left parts separately. Since you can record the left part while play-

ing back the right, this is useful for independently recording both parts of a duet.

1. Make all the initial settings.

Same as step 1 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 28.

2. Select a song to record.

Press the [SONG SELECT] button so that the “USER”

indicator lights then press the [–/NO][+/YES] buttons to

select a song for recording.

CAUTION

To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s):

If the song contains data, the part indicator lights up green

when you select a song. Note that recording new data on this

part will erase the existing data.

3. Engage the Record Ready mode.

Press the [REC] button and press the [RIGHT]/[LEFT]

button to engage the Record Ready mode. Recording

does not actually start yet.

The amount of memory available for recording will be

shown on the display in approximate kilobytes. This

value is expressed in kilobytes and indicates how much

space remains available for recording on the P-140. You

can record up to a maximum of about 11,000 notes on

the P-140 depending on pedal usage and other factors.

The [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will ﬂash at the current

METRONOME tempo setting.

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

button again.

4. Start and stop recording.

Same as steps 3-5 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 29.

Part button indications

Off: Contains no data

On (green): Contains data

On (red): Part is enabled for

recording

If the metronome was on when

you started recording, you’ll be

able to keep time with the metro-

nome while recording, but the

metronome sound will not be

recorded.

If you want to change the tempo,

time signature, reverb type, or

effect type when rerecording a

part or when recording to another

part, do so after entering the

Record Ready mode.

If you don’t want to hear the previ-

ously recorded part while you

record (for example, when you

want to record a song different

from what you recorded on the

previous part), press the play-

back part button before pressing

the [REC] button so that its indi-

cator is turned off.

For more information on record-

ing, see page 32.
