Step2
Start to play the piano.
While recording the second part, the previously recorded first part will also play. During this time, the LED
indicators for the REC button and PLAY/STOP button will be turned on.
To start playing back the fi rst part and then recording the second part from a certain point, later in the song,
press the PLAY/STOP button instead of playing the keyboard to start playback, then begin recording the second
part when necessary.
Step3
Press the PLAY/STOP button to fi nish recording.
The LED indicators for the PLAY/STOP button and the REC button will turn off and the newly recorded part will
be saved to memory automatically.
The total recording capacity of the CN piano’s memory is approximately 15,000 notes, with button and pedal presses
also counted as one note.
When the maximum capacity is reached, recording will stop and all music recorded up until that point will be saved to
memory automatically.
Performance data stored inside the CN piano’s memory will be saved even after turning off the power.
It is possible to temporarily turn off (mute) a previously recorded part, for example PART1, before recording a new
part, for example PART2. This function can be useful to avoid distraction while recording. To mute PART1, hold the
PLAY/STOP button and press the PART1 button, the LED indicator for PART1 will turn off.
