Start recording.
There are several different ways you can start recording.
• Starting by playing the keyboard
If you’ve selected the SONG [TR 1]/[TR 2] buttons in step 3, play in the
right-hand section of the keyboard (page 78). If you’ve selected the SONG
[EXTRA TR (STYLES)] button in step 3, play in the left-hand (chord) section
of the keyboard (page 107). Recording begins automatically as soon as
you play a note on the keyboard.
• Starting by pressing the SONG [
F/K] (PLAY/PAUSE) button
If you start recording in this way, “empty” data is recorded until you play a
note on the keyboard. This is useful for starting a Song with a short one-or
two-beat pick-up or lead-in.
• Starting by pressing the STYLE CONTROL [START/STOP] button.
In this case the rhythm parts (channels) of the Style begin playing back and
recording starts simultaneously.
The RIGHT 2 and/or LEFT parts
are recorded onto separate
tracks.
Using the metronome
You can record your perfor-
mance while playing back the
metronome (page 34). However,
the metronome sound is not
recorded.
