Recording and Play Back
You can store the notes you play in digital piano
memory for later playback. You can have up to five
songs in memory at one time.
A track is a container of recorded data, and each song
consists of two tracks: Track 1 and Track 2. You can
record each track separately and then combine them so
they play back together as a single song.
Memory Capacity
• Digital piano memory can hold about 50,000 notes
total, for five songs. Each song can contain up to
about 10,000 notes.
• Recording will stop automatically and the REC lamp
will go out if the number of notes in memory
exceeds the maximum.

Recording Data Storage
• Starting a new recording deletes any data that was
previously recorded in memory.
• Should power fail during recording, all of the data in
the track you are recording will be deleted.
• You can save memory data to external media, if you
want. See “Using an SD Memory Card” on page E-33
for more information.
IMPORTANT!
• CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. takes no responsibility
for any damages, lost profits, or claims by third parties
arising from the deletion of recorded data due to
malfunction, repair, or for any other reason.
• After you select a song, it can take a number of seconds
for the song data to be loaded. While the data is being
loaded, the song number will flash on the display, and the
keyboard keys and button operations will be disabled. If
