Using the Recorder
The CLP-411 has a 1-track recorder and the CLP-511 features a two-track
recorder that let you record what you play on the keyboard and then play it
back. Two tracks on the CLP-511 mean that you can “overdub” one part on top
of another, using a different voice if you like. The recorder feature is a useful
adjunct to any keyboard study program, since it lets you hear exactly how you
sound from the listener’s perspective. It can also be just plain fun.
The recorder actually records the following data:
■ Entire Song
● Tempo ● Reverb type & depth ● Effect type
■ CLP-511: Individual Tracks, CLP-411: Entire Song
● Notes played ● Voice selection ● Voice variation
● Dual mode voices ● Split mode voices (CLP-511 only)
● Damper pedal ● Soft pedal
● Sostenuto pedal (not recorded as an initial setting)
● Effect depth ● Dual mode functions (F3)
● Split mode functions (F4, CLP-511 only)
Recording
Make All Necessary Initial Settings............................................
Before actually beginning to record, select the voice you want to
record with (or voices if you will be using the dual or split mode). You
might also want to set the volume and tempo controls.

Engage the Record Ready Mode ..................................................
Press the RECORDER [REC] button to engage the record ready
mode (recording does not actually start yet). On the CLP-411 the [REC]
button indicator will light. The record ready mode can be disengaged
before recording by pressing the [REC] button a second time.
NOTE
• The record ready mode cannot be engaged while the demo/piano song
mode is engaged.
Select the Record Track (CLP-511).............................................
If you have a CLP-511, when the record mode is engaged in the
previous step, the last-recorded track will automatically be selected for
recording and its indicator — i.e. the [1] or [2] button indicator — will
glow red. If you want to record on a different track, press the appropri-
ate track button so that its indicator glows red.
NOTE
• The track button indicators of tracks which contain previously recorded
data will glow green (unless the track is turned off as described below).
The previously-recorded data on the non-record track will normally be
played back as you record, so you can play along with a previously-
recorded track. If you don’t want to hear the previously recorded track as
you record, press the playback track button before pressing the [REC]
button (step 1, above) so that its indicator goes out.
• Recording on a track which already contains data will erase all previous
data on that track.
• When the record mode is engaged the amount of memory available for
recording will be shown on the LED display in approximate kilobytes
(starting at “21”), and the rightmost dot on the LED display will flash at the
current METRONOME tempo setting.
