18 KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CA1200, CA1000
TUTORIAL
Using the Recorder
The CA piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder,
and it is just as easy to use. The CA piano records a song as digital data
instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument. Because
the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when
you play it back. You can, for example, adjust the tempo without changing
the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded.
Once you understand the recorder, you will find it to be a useful tool for
both practicing and playing the piano.
RECORDING A SONG
Press the REC button when you are ready to record. The LED
indicator will start flashing telling you that the piano is ready to record.
The LCD display shows the song number and part
number that will be recorded.
Now play some music on the piano. The recorder will automatically
start recording with the first note you play.
Press the PLAY/STOP button when you’re finished recording. The
CA piano will stop recording and the LCD display will momentarily display
a message “Stopping” while the song is saved to memory.
If you make a mistake, you can record your piece again. Just repeat the
same procedure. The second recording will completely erase the first
one.
PLAYING BACK A SONG
The CA Piano will be ready to play back the song as soon as you’re finished
recording.
The LCD Display shows you the number of the song
you just recorded.
Press the PLAY/STOP button to play back the song.
Press the PLAY/STOP button again to stop play back and return to
the song-select display.
