Recording to a Melody Track (1 - 5)
Five independent Melody tracks are provided for recording your keyboard
performance. Normally, you’ll want to record these after you’ve recorded
the Chord track. You can also record the Chord track and one of the Melody
tracks simultaneously.
4 Start recording.
When the beat marks and track number start flashing, you can start recording
simply by playing the keyboard (or by pressing the [START/STOP] button).
If you want to rehearse your part before recording, press the [SYNC START]
button to turn Sync Start off. After rehearsing, press [SYNC START] again
to return to the above condition.
When recording the Chord track
With Sync Start on, play the first chord of the song in the auto accompani-
ment section of the keyboard. The accompaniment starts automatically and
you can continue recording, playing other chords in time with the accompa-
niment.
5 Stop recording.
After you’ve finished playing the part, press the [START/STOP] or
[RECORD] button.
6 Record to other tracks as desired.
To do this, simply repeat steps #3 - #5 above. Make sure that when you press
the SONG MEMORY button corresponding to the desired track, the track
number in the display flashes.
7 Listen to your new recording.
To play back the song from the beginning, simply press the [START/STOP]
button again. Playback stops when the [START/STOP] button is pressed
again.
