Song Recorder
(Internal Memory)
The AnyTimeX2 piano allows up to 10 diff erent songs to be recorded, stored in internal memory, and played back
at the touch of a button. Each song consists of two separate tracks - referred to as ‘parts’ - that can be recorded and
played back independently. This allows the left-hand part of a song to be recorded fi rst on one track, and the right-
hand part to be recorded later on the other track.
