(16 Track)
Multitrack recording is a method of recording whereby you
listen to what has previously been recorded while recording
new parts on top of that material.
The HPi-7 lets you record 16 separate parts. By recording a
different tone to each part, you can create song data for
performances that feature up to 16 different tones layered
together.
The function used for recording the 16 individual parts one
at a time is called the “16-track sequencer.”

16-Track Sequencer and the Track Buttons
In addition to the “16-Track Sequencer” function, the “Track
Buttons” (p. 16) are another of the unit’s playing/recording
functions.
In addition to the “16-track sequencer,” the HPi-7 also
features the “track buttons” (p. 16).
These “track buttons” group the 16-track sequencer’s 16 parts
with five buttons. Using the 16-track sequencer to work with
performances recorded with the track buttons allows you to
record even more sounds and edit with precision.
The track buttons correspond to the 16-track sequencer's
parts as shown below.
Each of the 16-track sequencer’s parts is used for recording a
single tone, so you cannot use it to record tones that combine
two tones simultaneously, as in Dual (p. 27) and Split (p. 28)
performances.
In addition, when recording performances using the Pianist
function, you can select only one part to record. If you want to
record multiple parts simultaneously with the Pianist function,
you should use the track buttons. Refer to “Recording with an
accompaniment (the Pianist function)” (p. 39).
You can also change the tones in each part, select specific parts
for playback (solo), and prevent specified parts from playing
(mute). Playback with only a single part muted is called “Minus
One.” You can even set solo and muting during playback.
