Using the User Song Recorder4
Start Recording.......................................................................................
Recording will begin automatically as soon as you play a note on
the keyboard or press the SONG [START/STOP] button. The cur-
rent measure number will appear on the display while recording.
•If the metronome was on when you started recording, you’ll be able
to keep time with the metronome while recording, but the metro-
nome sound will not be recorded.
•You can record up to a maximum of about 10,000 notes on the P-
80 depending on pedal usage and other factors. The record track
indicator will begin to flash when recorder memory is almost full. If
the memory becomes full during recording, “
FUL
” will appear on
the display and recording will stop automatically. (All recorded data
up to that point will be retained.)

Stop Recording.......................................................................................
Press either the [REC] or SONG [START/STOP] button to stop
recording.
The indicator of the recorded track will glow green to indicate
that it now contains data.
Erasing a Single Track....................................................................
All data can be erased from either of the recorder’s tracks by engag-
ing the record mode, selecting the track you want to erase, and then
pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button twice without recording
any data.
Changing the Initial Settings....................................................
The initial voice, tempo, reverb type, reverb depth, and effect
settings made in step 1 of the recording procedure are actually
recorded by the P-80.
These initial settings can be changed after the recording is
finished by pressing the [REC] button to engage the record ready
mode, pressing the appropriate track button, making the required
changes, and then pressing the [REC] button again to exit from the
record ready mode and register the changes.
If you do this, be careful not to press the SONG [START/STOP]
button or a key on the keyboard, either of which will start recording
and erase all previous recorded data on the selected track.
It is possible to cancel the operation even after changes have
been made: change tracks and then press the [REC] button to exit
from the record mode (this also cancels data for the entire song).
•The following data for initial settings cannot be changed: “Dual
balance (F3)”, “Dual detune (F3)”, “Dual octave shift (F3)”, “Split
balance (F4)” or “Split octave shift (F4)”.
Press twice.
