In addition to recording notes as they are played on the
keyboard, you can also record to one track while playing back
from the other track. The following procedures cover each of
these operations.

To record notes from the keyboard

PREPARATION

• Select the tone and digital effects you want to start with.
• Make sure that the indicator above the MUSIC LIBRARY

button is not lit. If it is, press MUSIC LIBRARY to turn it
off.

• Use the procedure under “Using the Metronome” on

page E-19 for configure the tempo and beat settings
you want to use during recording.

1

Press the SONG MEMORY button.

• This causes the indicator lamp above the button to

light.

• If a track is already recorded, the indicator above its

track button lights at this time.

• If you want to use the metronome during recording,

press the METRONOME button to start the
metronome.

2

Press RECORD to put the digital piano into record
standby.

• The indicator above RECORD flashes.
• If both tracks are empty (unrecorded), Track A is

selected first for recording, which is indicated by the
lamp above its button flashing. If only one of the
tracks is empty, that track is selected first for
recording.

• If both tracks are already selected, the track recorded

last is selected first. If both tracks are recorded and
you have turned off power since recording, Track A
is selected first.

• You can also change the metronome’s beat setting at

this time.

3

Press either of the TRACK buttons to select Track A
or Track B.

• The indicator above the button you press flashes to

indicate that the track is selected for recording.

• If the data recorded in a single track uses up all the

available Song Memory capacity, you will not be able
to record anything in the other track.

4

Play something on the keyboard to start recording.

• What you play sounds from the speakers and is

recorded into memory.

• You can also start recording by pressing PLAY/STOP.

In this case, blank space is inserted in memory from
the point that you press PLAY/STOP up to the point
you start to play on the keyboard.

• The indicator lamp above the RECORD button

changes from flashing to lit when recording starts.

5

After you are finished recording, press PLAY/STOP
to stop the record operation.

• At this time the indicator above RECORD goes out,

while the indicator above the recorded track remains
on.

• Here you can press PLAY/STOP and playback the

data you just recorded.

• To exit the song memory mode, press the SONG

MEMORY so its indicator lamp goes out.

To record to one track while playing
back from the other track

This procedure is basically the same as that under “To record
notes from the keyboard” on this page. The differences are
as described below.

Example: To play back Track A while recording to Track B

• Before starting step 2 of the procedure on this page, press

the TRACK A button so the indicator above it is lit.

• When you enter record standby, the indicator above the

TRACK A button remains lit, while the indicator above the
TRACK B button flashes. If the indicator above the TRACK
A button is flashing at this time, press the TRACK B button
so the indicator above it flashes.

• Performing step 4 of the procedure causes Track A play back

and Track B recording to start at the same time. Play on the
keyboard along with the playback of Track A.

• Once you enter record standby, you can also change the

tempo and beat settings. It should be noted, however, that
playback is performed following the last tempo and beat
settings that were used for recording in either of the tracks.
