Using the Song Memory
Recording
In addition to recording notes as they are played on the
keyboard, you can also record to one track while playing back
from the other track. The following procedures cover each of
these operations.
This section describes how to record keyboard play to
memory and playback data from song memory.
About the Song Memory
Song Memory Capacity
• There are two song memory tracks named Track A and
Track B. The two tracks can store a combined total of
approximately 8,000 notes.
• Recording stops automatically and the indicator above the
RECORD button goes out whenever memory becomes full.
Recorded Data
The following is a list of the data that can be recorded in song
memory once recording starts.
• Anything you played on the keyboard (received MIDI data
not recorded)
• Tone settings (including layered tones, layered tone volume,
split tones, split tone volume, split point) and any tone
setting changes
• Tempo and beat settings used during recording
• Pedal operations
• Reverb settings
• Chorus settings
Recorded Data Storage
This digital piano has a lithium battery to supply power to
retain memory contents even while power is off.* The life of
the lithium battery is five years after the date of manufacture
of the digital piano. Be sure to contact your CASIO service
provider about having the lithium battery replaced every five
years.
* Never turn off piano power while a record operation is in
progress.
IMPORTANT!
• If the data recorded in a single track uses up all the avail-
able Song Memory capacity, you will not be able to record
anything in the other track.
• Recording new data to a track automatically deletes any
data previously stored in that track. A lit track indicator
means that the track already contains data.
• Turning off power while a record operation is in progress
deletes anything recorded up to that point.
• CASIO shall not be held responsible for any losses by you
or any third party due to loss of data caused by malfunction
or repair of this digital piano, or by battery replacement.
