3. Phrase Recording
80 RS7000
Real-time recording allows anything played on the RS7000 key-
board, operation of the assignable knobs, and data received from
an external MIDI controller to be recorded in real time.
In this section we’ll look at the real-time REPLACE or OVER-
DUB recording procedure.

Real-Time Recording
NOTE
•If REC LOOP is ON, the phrase being
recorded will continue to loop until the [STOP]
button is pressed.
•Mistakes can be “erased” by holding the
[SHIFT] button and pressing the key corre-
sponding to the note or instrument you want
to erase.
•Assignable knob data can also be erased by
holding the [SHIFT] button and operating the
appropriate knob. The knob data is erased
from the point at which the [SHIFT] button is
held and the knob operated until the [SHIFT]
button is released.
NOTE
Pressing [JOB] while holding [SHIFT] directly
accesses the “00 Undo/Redo” phrase job (Page
68, Page 134), allowing the previous record
operation to be undone. This is useful if, for
example, you’ve accidentally erased material
on a track you wanted to keep by recording in
the REPLACE mode.
