HP109-PE – Chapter 4. Recording Your Performance
26
Chapter 4. Recording Your Performance
You can easily record your performances. A recorded perfor-
mance can be played back to hear your own playing, or to
add additional parts.
The following types of recording can be done using the
HP109-PE.
• Recording just your own keyboard performance
(→“Recording a New Song”, p. 26)
• Recording along with a built-in song (→“Recording
Along with a Song”, p. 27)
• Recording each hand separately (→“Selecting and
Recording the Track for Each Hand Separately”, p. 28)
Notes regarding recording
• Only one song can be recorded.
• The HP109-PE includes a “Song Backup function” (p.
32), which allows you to store the song recorded with
the HP109-PE in the instrument itself. Recorded perfor-
mance that have not been backed up with Song Backup
is erased with the power is turned off. Be sure to use
Song Backup for any performance you want to keep.
You can either record it on an external audio device, or
use an external MIDI device to save the performance
data on a floppy disk. For details, refer to “Chapter 6.
Connecting External Devices” (p. 34).

[Play] button.
About the Recorded Tracks
A. Recording without specifying the track to be recorded

recorded to either the left or right track, the data is then
recorded to the empty track.
B. Recording while using the Dual, Acoustic Layering, or Split
functions
C. Recording while the “Layer” or “Octave” function is
assigned to the center pedal
