SONG RECORDING
RECORDING A USER SONG — STEP RECORDING
The basic steps for Step recording are similar to those for Realtime recording. In brief, the basic
operation is:
1) Make all desired PortaTone settings.
2) Select the Step Record mode.
3) Select a User song for recording.
4) Select a track number.
5) Start recording. Enter notes and rests individually, playing back the song occasionally to hear
the results.
6) Listen to your new recording.
7) Record to other tracks as desired.
8) Exit from the Record mode.
2 Select the Step Record mode.
Press the RECORD button, repeatedly if necessary, until “Step” appears at
the top of the display.
1 Make all desired PortaTone settings.
This operation is the same as that of Realtime recording (page 80).
Realtime and Step recording
methods can be mixed in
the same song, but not the
same track.

can be changed in various ways with the Velocity Curve
function (page 89).
