power to the KR105 is turned off. It is a good idea to save song
data to a floppy disk or user memory. For more information,
refer to Saving Songs (p. 87).
Changing the Recording
Method (Rec Mode)
You can use any of the four methods below to record with
the KR105.
Although you will normally be using Replace Recording,
where previously recorded material is erased when new
sounds are recorded, youll find that you can record songs
easily by using this method in combination with other
recording methods.
Replace Recording (p. 103)
This is the normal method for recording. New material is
recorded as previously recorded material is erased.
Mix Recording (p. 103)
New notes are recorded on top of notes previously recorded.
This convenient feature makes it easy for you to record
melodies over prerecorded accompaniment.
Loop Recording (p. 104)
Specified measures are recorded repeatedly, while new notes
are combined with existing music. A convenient feature for
creating rhythm parts. Loop Recording allows you to record
over and over within a selected segment, adding a different
percussion sound with each pass.
Punch-in Recording (p. 105)
You can re-record only a specified passage as you listen to a
recorded performance.
Immediately after the power is turned on, Replace Recording is
selected.
