The song in the Composer’s memory is erased when
the power is turned off. If you don’t want to lose it, use
the method described below.
The number of songs that can be saved onto a disk
depends on the amount of performance data they
contain, but the maximum number of songs you can
save is 99.
Note: New disks or disks which have been used on other
equipment cannot be used just as they are. Please refer to
“Formatting disks” on page 36.

3.
Use the <> and <> buttons to the right of the

below the display, and <> and <> to the left of
the screen.

9.1 16-track Sequencer
This sequencer allows you to record up to 16 different
parts onto separate tracks using different Tones. You
can take advantage of the sequencer to record your
own songs with original arrangements.
Note: See “Link to 16TRK Sequencer” on page 51 for a
parameter you may want to set first.

that looks similar to the following.

KR-11 will now function in Whole mode. The 16-
track Sequencer uses only one Tone for each track, so
you cannot record in Split or Layer modes.

play to select the track you wish to record.
