In place of step 4, press the SYNCHRO/FILL-IN NEXT button
and then play something on the melody keyboard to start
recording without Auto Accompaniment. When you reach

Once you record tracks to song memory, you can play them
back to see what they sound like.

With step recording, you can record Auto-Accompaniment
chords and notes, and even specify note lengths one by one.
Even those who find it difficult to play along on the keyboard
with an Auto-Accompaniment can create Auto-
Accompaniments based on their own original chord
progressions. The following shows the type of data that can
be recorded in Tracks 1 through 6.

With step recording, first record the chords and Auto-
Accompaniment in Track 1. Next, record the melody in
Tracks 2 through 6.

Š

Use the procedure under “To record to Tracks 2 through 6
using real-time recording” on page E-59 for details on how
to record to Tracks 2 through 6.
