SONG RECORDER
3. SONG RECORDER
The EP3 digital piano allows up to three different songs to be recorded, stored in memory, and played back at
the touch of a button. Each song has two separate tracks called ‘parts’ that can be recorded independently. For
example, this allows the left-hand part to be recorded fi rst on one track, then the right-hand part to be recorded
later on the other track, while listening to the fi rst part.
When recording or playing back a song, each part can be re-recorded or played back freely. Attempting
to re-record a part will automatically erase all previously recorded performance information for that part,
therefore when recording parts separately, it is important to select the correct part carefully, in order to prevent
accidentally overwriting a previously recorded part.
1) RECORDING A SONG
In the following example, the SONG1 memory will be used for recording.
Step 1
Press and hold the REC button, then press the PIANO button to select SONG1, and the CLAVI/GUITAR
button to select PART1.
While holding the REC button, the LED indicators for the PIANO and CLAVI/GUITAR buttons will start to fl ash,
indicating that SONG1 and PART1 are selected for recording.
If no PART is selected PART1 will be selected automatically.
Step 2
Release the REC button.
The LED indicators for the selected PIANO and CLAVI/GUITAR buttons will stop fl ashing,
and the LED indicator for the REC button will start to fl ash. This is the standby state for
recording.
The LED indicator for the SOUND SELECTION button will also turn on, indicating that the sound to be used for
recording can be changed.
