Step Record

STEP RECORD is simply a method of making a tune by storing the sounds note-by-note on the display.
Instead of playing the keyboard directly as in the REALTIME RECORD mode, you can take your time to
input each single note. This is an especially effective method for storing complicated passages that are
difficult to play or when the exact timing of a part is critical.

Recording procedure

Record the keyboard performance and panel
changes.

1.

On the SEQ MENU display, use the SONG
SELECT

and

buttons to select the song

number. Then select RECORD & EDIT.

2.

On the RECORD & EDIT display, select STEP
RECORD.

• The display changes to the PART SELECT

display.

3.

Use the balance buttons below the display to
specify the track for the part you are going to
record (only one track can be selected at a
time).

• The display changes to the STEP RECORD

input display similar to the following.

• If you selected the track to which the CHORD

part has been assigned, the display changes
to the STEP RECORD: CHORD display.
(Refer to page 88.)

• If you selected the track to which the

RHYTHM part has been assigned, the display
changes to the STEP RECORD: RHYTHM
display. (Refer to page 90.)

• If you selected the track to which the CON-

TROL part has been assigned, the display
changes to the STEP RECORD: CONTROL
display.

4.

Use the MEAS

and

buttons to select the

measure.

• This step is not necessary if you are recording

from measure 1 of a blank track.

5.

Use the CURSOR

and

buttons to move

the cursor to the note position (dot) you are
going to store.

• Each dot represents one-eighth of a quarter-

note (a thirty-second note).

• When storing triplets, it may not be possible to

match the timing exactly with the 1/32-note
steps. However, if you select triplet-type notes
for the note length (LENGTH) in step 6 below,
the timing is automatically corrected.

6.

Use the left REC NOTE LENGTH

and

buttons to specify the note value. Select from

of the note length.
