Chapter 5 Basic Recording; The [Rec] Button - Yamaha Disklavier Mark III series Operation Manual

Chapter 5
Basic Recording
This chapter describes the basic procedure for recording a song, as well as other general recording
functions such as song titling, metronome recording, and changing song tempo.
The procedure below only explains the very basics of song recording.
For more details on recording songs, see Chapter 6 "Recording L/R Songs" and Chapter 7 "Recording Ensemble
Songs".
Note: You cannot record songs to a CD.

The [REC] Button

The [REC] button functions as a toggle switch so that all recording functions, including quantizing and
overdubbing, are available for the recording of all tracks. This allows the recording procedures of L/R
tracks, rhythm tracks, and other accompanying tracks to follow the same basic flow.
The button toggles the Record Standby mode, Title Editing mode, Re-recording mode, and Recording
Setting mode, as shown below.

the option of playing back a monitor
piano part when recording or re-
recording a piano part.

metronome.
