Recording Your Performance
With MIDI Recording, you can create a MIDI Song consisting of 16 tracks by
recording your performance to each track one by one. In recording a piano
piece, for example, you can record the right-hand part to Track 1 then record
the left-hand part to Track 2, allowing you create a complete piece which may
be difficult to play live with both hands together. To record a performance with
Rhythm playback, for example, record Rhythm playback to Tracks 9 – 10, then
record melodies to Track 1 while listening to the already recorded Rhythm
playback. In this way, you can create an entire Song which would otherwise be
difficult, or even impossible, to play live.
1. Execute the same operations as in step 1 and step 2 on
page 50 to enter the Recording mode with a new blank
Song selected.
2. Use the [<]/[>] buttons to select a Recording Track.
When you want to record the right-hand part, highlight “R” (Track 1).
When you want to record the left-hand part, highlight “L” (Track 2).
Alternately, when you want to record your performance to Tracks 3 – 16,
call up the desired one by pressing the [<]/[>] buttons repeatedly.
3. Play the keyboard to start recording.
4. After you finish your performance, press the [REC]
(Record) button to stop recording.
This operation exits from the Recording mode and calls up the display for
saving the recorded performance data.
