16. Recording your performance as audio data
Your BK-3 allows you to record your performance on the optional USB
memory.
The resulting audio le is stored in the “My Recordings” folder.
The recording format is WAV (not mp3), which allows you to burn your
recordings onto a CD using your computer.

You will need a USB memory to record your performance.

guarantee operation if any other USB memory is used.
