Song Recording and Playback

Prepare an SD Memory Card
An SD Memory Card is necessary for song recording. Purchase an SD
Memory Card (2 gigabyte capacity or less), and format the card in the
TENORI-ON memory card slot by selecting the "SD Format" function in
the "System menu".
About Recording and Song Files
Performance operations carried out on the TENORI-ON can be recorded in
real time and saved to an SD Memory Card as a Song File.
Song Files contain all operations carried out from the time recording
is begun until it is ended: LED button operations, functions button
operations, and [CLEAR] button operations are all recorded in real time.
A recorded Song File can then be loaded into the TENORI-ON and played
back, precisely reproducing the entire performance as it occurred.
