Recording to RIGHT/LEFT
This lets you record the right and left parts separately. Since you can record the left part while play-
ing back the right, this is useful for independently recording both parts of a duet.
1. Make all the initial settings.
Same as step 1 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 25.
2. Select a file (U01–U03) to record.
Press the [SONG SELECT] button so that the “USER” indicator lights then press
the [–/NO][+/YES] buttons to select a file for recording.
CAUTION
To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s):
If the file contains data, the part indicator lights up green when you select a file.
Note that recording new data on this part will erase the existing data.
3. Engage the Record Ready mode.
Press the [REC] button and press the [RIGHT]/[LEFT] button to engage the
Record Ready mode. Recording does not actually start yet.
The [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will flash at the current METRONOME tempo
setting.
Record Ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC]
button again.
4. Start and stop recording.
Same as steps 35 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 26.

Part button indications
Off: Contains no data
On (green): Contains data
On (red): Part is enabled for
recording
If the metronome was on when
you started recording, you’ll be
able to keep time with the metro-
nome while recording, but the
metronome sound will not be
recorded.
If you want to change the tempo,
reverb type, or effect type when
rerecording a part or when
recording to another part, do so
after entering the Record Ready
mode.
If you don’t want to hear the previ-
ously recorded part while you
record (for example, when you
want to record a song different
from what you recorded on the
previous part), press the play-
back part button before pressing
the [REC] button so that its indi-
cator is turned off.
For more information on record-
ing, see page 29.
