Audio recording and data recording
Cassette tape recordings use a different data format than this instrument. Cassette tapes record audio signals. On the
other hand, this instrument records information about the notes and voices being played and about the timing and
tempo of those notes. It does not record audio signals. When you play back a recorded performance on this instrument,
its internal tone generator reproduces the sound according to the recorded information.

You can also use the [MASTER VOL-
UME] control to adjust the volume level
during playback.
You cannot engage the Record mode
while another song, such as a demo
song, is playing.
This instrument’s internal memory
allows the recording of one song.
The recorded song to the instrument can
be saved to USB flash memory (page
29).
When a USB flash memory device is
connected to the instrument, the perfor-
mance is recorded to the USB flash
memory directly.
If there is not enough recording capacity
left, or if the files U00–U99 already exist
in the USB flash memory, “
FUL
” will
appear on the display and the Record
mode cannot be engaged.
Before using a USB flash memory
device, be sure to read “Precautions
when using the USB [TO DEVICE] termi-
nal” on page 30.
After you’ve recorded a performance on this instrument, starting to record another performance will
automatically erase the previously recorded data.
