YPP-100
Using the User Song Recorder
The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the YPP-100 key-
board can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the left-
hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded
left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you could
record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet
and hear how they sound when played back.
The user song recorder actually records the following data:
■ Entire Song
● Tempo ● Time signature (beat) ● Reverb type (including OFF) ● Effect type
■ Individual Tracks
● Notes played ● Voice selection
● Dual mode voices ● Damper pedal
● Soft pedal ● Effect depth ● Reverb depth
● Dual balance (F3) ● Dual detune (F3) ● Dual octave shift (F3)
Recording
Make All Necessary Initial Settings.............................................
Before actually beginning to record, select the voice you want to
record with (or voices if you will be using the dual or split mode). You
might also want to set the volume and tempo controls.
Engage the Record Ready Mode ...................................................
Press the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode (recording
does not actually start yet). The record ready mode can be disengaged
before recording by pressing the [REC] button a second time.
• The record ready mode cannot be engaged while the demo/preset song
mode is engaged.
Select the Record Track ..........................................................................
When the record mode is engaged in the previous step, the last-
recorded track will automatically be selected for recording and its indica-
tor — i.e. the TRACK [1] or [2] button indicator — will glow red. If you
want to record on a different track, press the appropriate track button so
that its indicator glows red.
• The track button indicators of tracks which contain previously recorded data
will glow green (unless the track is turned off as described below). The
previously-recorded data on the non-record track will normally be played
back as you record, so you can play along with a previously-recorded track.
If you don’t want to hear the previously recorded track as you record (when
you want to record a song different from what you recorded on the previous
track etc.,), press the playback track button before pressing the [REC]
button (step 1, above) so that its indicator goes out.
• Recording on a track which already contains data will erase all previous
data on that track.
• When the record mode is engaged the amount of memory available for
recording will be shown on the LED display in approximate kilobytes
(starting at “50”), and the rightmost dot on the LED display will flash at the
current METRONOME tempo setting.
