NOTE
Recorder memory capacity is approximately 10,000
notes per song. When remaining capacity is 100
notes or less, the
(RECORDER) button lamp will
flash at high speed. Recording will stop
automatically when memory becomes full.
Repeat, fast reverse, fast forward, pause, and tempo
adjustment during playback are the same as when
playing back songs. See “Playing Back a Specific
Music Library Song” (page E-24) for more
information.
You can listen to the song data currently stored in
recorder memory at any time by pressing the
(RECORDER) button to enter the playback mode
and then pressing
(START/STOP).
IMPORTANT!
A new recording replaces (deletes) previously
recorded contents.
If power to the Digital Piano is cut off while recording
is in progress, everything you recorded up to that
point will be deleted. Take care so power is not
turned off accidentally during recording operations.
You can record up to five songs (numbered 1 through

What is a track?
A “track” is a separate recorded part of a song. The
recorder of this Digital Piano supports a total of 17
tracks, which are divided between two types described
below.
System Track
In addition to notes you play on the keyboard and
other performance operation data, the system track
also includes a wide range of setup information for
the song, including layer on/off, split on/off, tempo,
Auto Accompaniment settings, reverb on/off, etc.
When you record a single-track song to recorder
memory, as shown under “Recording or Playing
Back a Single Song” (page E-34) and “Recording or
Playing Back Multiple Songs” (page E-35),
everything is recorded to the system track.
Tracks 01 through 16
These tracks are used to record keyboard notes, tone
settings, and pedal operations. These tracks can be
combined with the system track and each other to
create the final song.
