Recording Original Phrases

The QY300 makes it easy to create original accompaniment phrases. In addition to the preset phrases, the QY300 has 100 phrase memory locations (US---

001 through US---100) which can be used to store your own creations. The PHRASE mode provides two ways to create original phrases: realtime and step recording.

Realtime Phrase Recording

In the realtime record mode you select the voice you want to record with, and then play the part on the micro-keyboard or an external MIDI keyboard in real time.

Select the PHRASE Mode & an Empty User Phrase

Press the [PHRASE] mode key to select the PHRASE mode, place the cursor at the “category” section of the phrase number and select “US” (user), then move the cursor to the phrase number and select an empty “user” phrase (the programmable user phrases are numbered US---001 through US---100). Empty phrases are indicated by a row of asterisks (“********”) following the phrase number.

If for some reason all 100 user phrases contain data, use the “Clear Phrase”

function described on page 102 to clear a phrase for recording.

Engage the Record Ready Mode

Press the key to engage the record ready mode. The red LED above the

key will light.
