Backing Sequence (Quick Record) recording
procedure
Here is the general procedure to follow for the Backing Sequence
(Quick) Recording.
1.
Press SEQUENCER to enter the Song mode.
2.
Press the RECORD button, and select the "Backing
Sequence (Quick Record)" option to enter the Backing
Sequence (Quick Record) mode. Now you can prepare
your recording parameters. (For more details, see "Record
mode: Backing Sequence (Quick Record) page" on
page 200).
3.
The latest selected Style is currently selected. If it is not the
right one, select a different Style to start recording with.
(See "Style Select window" on page 83).
4.
The latest selected Performance or STS is currently
selected. If you prefer, select a different Performance or
STS. (See "Performance Select window" on page 82, and
"STS Select" on page 84).
5.
Select the status of the Backing Sequence grouped tracks,
using the Kbd/Pad and Ch/Acc parameters. (Kbd/Pad stays
for Keyboard and Pads; Ch/Acc stays for Chord and
Accompaniment, i.e. the Style tracks). To record all you
play on the keyboard, plus the automatic accompaniment,
leave their status to Rec (see "Track status icons" on
page 197).
Warning: Tracks set to REC are automatically overwritten
when starting recording. Set a track to the PLAY or MUTE
status, when you don't want to delete it. For example, if you
are recording a keyboard part on an existing Style track, set
the Ch/Acc parameter to PLAY, and the Kbd/Pad track to
REC.
6.
Start recording by pressing the left
button or the START/STOP button.
• By pressing the left
START/STOP button), you can record a keyboard intro
with no Style playing. After a count-in (see "Metro (Metro-
nome)" on page 201), you can start recording.
Play a solo intro, then start the auto-accompaniment by
pressing the START/STOP button.
• By pressing the START/STOP button you can start the
Style right at the beginning of the Song.
Since you can use any Style control, you could start with
the usual combinations (INTRO, ENDING, FILL... see
"Selecting and playing a Style" on page 46 for more infor-
mation).
Note: While in Backing Sequence mode, you can't record the
SYNCHRO, TAP TEMPO/RESET, MANUAL
ACCOMPANIMENT VOLUME controls.
7.
Play your music. While recording you can even change the
Style, or stop it by pressing START/STOP or one of the
ENDINGs. While recording you can even start the style
again, by pressing START/STOP.
8.
When finished recording your performance, press the
(PLAY/STOP) button in the PLAYER 1 section. You
will go back to the Sequencer Play Main page (see
"Sequencer Play - Main page" on page 193).
At this point, you may press the
ton in the PLAYER 1 section to listen to the new Song.
You may also edit the Song by pressing the MENU button
(see "Edit menu" on page 205).
9.
Save the song to a storage device (see "Save Song window"
on page 217).

Memory), and will be deleted when turning the instrument
off, switching to the Style Play or Song Play mode, or entering
