9,3. Recording Mode
You can select the recording method and the way
that recording is stopped.
1. On the Composer Menu, press <Recording Made>.
A screen like the one below appears on the display.
2. Use the buttons on the left side of the display to select the
recording method (Rec Mode), and the buttons on the right
side of the display to select how recording ends (Rec Stop).
Recording method (Rec Mode)
Replace: This is the usual recording mode. When
recording to a track that already contains data, you
overwrite the previous version up to the point
where you stop recording. (This is also the case
when you start recording without playing anything:
the Composer will then record the equivalent num-
ber of rests.)
Mix: Allows you to add new notes to an existing
recording without overwriting the previous ver-
sion. This mode is ideal for programming the
drums because it allows you to start with the bass
drum and snare drum and to add the HiHat and
cymbals the second time around.
° If you choose Mix to add notes to a melodic part, be
sure to switch an the Link function (see page 50). Other-
wise, the track may suddenly use a different Tone.
Punch In/Out: This mode allows you to use a
footswitch (or a PAD button) to start and stop
recording while listening to your song. Select this
mode to correct minor mistakes (such as flat notes
here and there, or shaky timing of a phrase). Press
the pedal (or PAD button) again to cancel recording
and returns to the playback state.
Punch-in recording can only be performed when
"Punch In/Out" has been set as the footswitch (or
the PAD button) function. To perform recording, be
sure to set the pedal function before you start. See
"Pedal (footswitch) functions" on page 46 and
"Pad buttons: additional or frequently used func-
tions" on page 45.
* Punch-in recording erases the previously recorded per-
formance (same as Replace mode).
Stopping a recording (Rec Stop)
Arranger Stop: Recording ends as soon as you stop
the Arranger.
Composer Stop: Pressing the Composer [STOP]
button ends recording. In this case, you can stop the
Arranger and go on recording until you press the
[STOP] button.
9.4. Formatting disks
In order to use new disks or disks which have been
used on other equipment, it will be necessary to
"format" such disks.
© When a disk is formatted, all the data stored on it is
completely erased. As a rule, you should always check
the contents of a used disk (either on the KR-75 or on a
PC) before formatting it.
. Set the Write Protect tab on the disk to the "Write" position
and insert the disk into the disk drive.
. Press <Disk Format> on the Composer Menu screen.
A screen like the one shown below will be dis-
played.
