Here’s how to record what you play on the unit as audio data. The recorded song can be used on your computer.
HP505 only
* Thanks to its multiple number of speakers, each of which can be used to play a dierent portion of the overall sound, the unit is capable of
producing piano sounds that possess great depth and seem to have three-dimensional presence.
Such eects are produced when you play something on the keyboard, or when you play back a song that’s been recorded as an SMF.
However, when you make an audio recording, the song will consist of two channels (stereo), and such eects cannot be reproduced.

USB memory port (p. 10).
