in time with the current tempo setting and the song will begin playback.

Press the [ STOP ] button to stop playing the song. The green Play LED
stops flashing.
See page 73 for more details about playing a song.
NOTE
If you have recorded a long and complex song, the RY20 may need a short time to
arrange the data in its memory. In this case, the prompt “
PLEASE WAIT” may
momentarily appear on the display,
IMPORTANT
Depending on the amount of data you have recorded, it may not be possible to fully
record all the available songs. If you run out of memory during recording, the error
message “
MEMORY FULL” will appear on the display. If this happens, use the Song
Clear function described on page 77 to clear unwanted song data. The maximum
memory capacity is approximately 4,000 parts.
You may also want to use a MIDI data storage device such as the Yamaha MDF2
MIDI Data Filer to save your important data to floppy disk.
WARNING
Turning the power off while Song Record Mode is active may cause the irretrievable
loss of ALL user data.
NOTE
You can change the tempo as the song plays. The RY20 always remembers the last
tempo you entered for a song.
