Song Sequencer Memory Capacity

Song Sequencer memory capacity depends on the keyboard model.
WK-1800 : 8,000 notes
WK-1600/1630 : 4,900 notes
• Available notes can all be used for a single song, or divided be-
tween two songs.
• The measure number (item 11 on page E-10) and beat number (item
10 on page E-10) flashing on the display during recording indi-
cates that memory is almost full (space for about 100 notes or less
remaining).
• Recording stops automatically as soon as memory becomes full.
Auto Accompaniment and rhythm pattern play also stops at this
time if you are using them.

Song Sequencer Memory Precautions

Note the following important points about data stored in Song Se-
quencer Memory.
• Recording to a track that already contains data replaces the previ-
ous recording with the new one.
• The keyboard comes with a built-in lithium battery that supplies
power to the memory to retain Song Sequencer memory data. If
this lithium battery goes dead, memory contents are deleted any
time keyboard power is turned off. The normal life of the original
battery is five years from the time it is loaded at the factory. It is up
to you to contact your nearest CASIO service provider about hav-
ing the lithium battery replaced periodically. Note that the cost for
battery replacement will be charged to you.

• Turning off the keyboard while a record operation is in progress
causes any data partially recorded to a track to be deleted.
• Song Sequencer memory contents can be sent to a computer or other
external device as MIDI data for storage. See "Bulk Sending Key-
board Data" on page E-65 for details.
• With the WK-1800, you can also store Song Sequencer memory data
on a floppy diskette. See "Using the Floppy Disk Drive (WK-1800
Only)" on page E-67 for details.

Song Sequencer Modes

The song sequencer has two modes: a Record/Playback Mode for
real-time recording, punch-in recording, and song playback, and a
Global Mode. The following illustration shows how each of these
modes is indicated.
