Adding New Tracks
When you’ve finished recording the first track, you can simply play it back as described in the previous section or
add a new track to your song. To record a new track:
ZSelect a Voice .........................................................................................................................................
Select a voice and other parameters for the new track. Try out the voice and selected
parameters before proceeding.
XEngage the Record Ready Mode...........................................................................................................
Press the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode.
Monitoring Previously Recorded Tracks
All previously recorded tracks are automatically selected for playback when the
record mode is engaged. You can turn these tracks on or off as required by pressing
the corresponding track button(s) before pressing the [REC] button.
CSelect a Track .........................................................................................................................................
Select a track other than the one you used to record the previous track. The indicator
of the track selected for recording should glow red.
NOTES
Remember that if you record on a track that has already been recorded, the previous
material will be erased and the new material will be recorded in its place.
BStop Recording .......................................................................................................................................
Press the [START/STOP] button or the [REC] button to stop recording.
Changing the Initial Parameter Values
The initial values of parameters marked with asterisks (*) in the lists given in step N
on page 37 can be changed for each track or the entire song by engaging the record
mode for the desired track, changing the parameters as required, and then disengag-
ing the record mode (press the [REC] button again) without actually recording. To
cancel any initial parameter values you’ve made, select a different track and then
press the [REC] button to disengage the record mode.
To change individual ABC part volume settings engage any ABC mode after turning
[REC] on, set the RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and/or BASS volume control
as required, then disengage the record mode.
The BASS volume control can be used while holding the [UTILITY] button to inde-
pendently adjust the volume of each track (except the rhythm track). The volume of
the rhythm track is adjusted via the RHYTHM volume control. Please note that vol-
ume settings can only be decreased.
Individual track reverb depth can be adjusted by using the BASS volume while hold-
ing the [REVERB] button, and the overall reverb depth can be adjusted by using the
TEMPO [] and [] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button.
Also note that the tempo, reverb type, style, style variation, fill-in, and intro/ending
settings are common to all tracks and cannot be set independently for different
tracks.
NOTES
Only initial parameter data created by the CVP-89 can be changed. Data converted by
the Convert to SMF functiion (page 53) cannot be changed. If the data cannot be
changed, “DATA NOT EDITABLE!” will appear on the display.
Only the individual track volume can be changed for data converted by the Convert to
DOC function (page 52).
Erasing the Tracks
Individual tracks — except the rhythm track — can be completely erased by starting
and stopping recording without actually playing or changing any parameters (i.e.
press the [START/STOP] button twice). The same procedure can be used to erase
the rhythm track if the RHYTHM volume control is set to its minimum position.
NOTES
Tracks 3-10 can be erased by engaging the record mode, turning ABC on, and then
pressing the [START/STOP] button twice.
VStart Recording.......................................................................................................................................
