Loop recording

Since auto accompaniment playback repeats the accompaniment patterns of several measures in a “loop,” you can also record patterns in a loop. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure Main section, the two measures are repeatedly recorded. Notes that you record will play back from the next loop (repetition), letting you record new material while hearing the parts you previously recorded.

Overdub recording

This feature lets you record new material to a track already containing recorded data, without deleting the original data. In style recording, the recorded data remains intact, unless you specifically delete it yourself. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure Main section, the two measures are repeated. As you record notes to each pass of the loop (repetition), those notes play back from the next loop, letting you overdub new material while hearing the previous parts.

This method is like writing music notation on paper, since it allows

you to enter each note or individually, and specify its length. This is

ideal for making precise recordings, or for recording parts that are

Assembling an Accompaniment Style (page 112)

This convenient feature lets you create composite styles by combining

various patterns from the internal preset accompaniment styles. For

example, if you want to create your own original 8-beat style, you

could take rhythm patterns from the “8 Beat 1” style, use the bass

pattern from “8 Beat 2,” and import the chord patterns from the “60’s 8

Beat” style — combining the various elements to create one

accompaniment style.
