Williams Serenade Piano
Metronome for Recording
Press the METRO button to enable the metronome
as a reference when recording only the melody track.
You can adjust the metronome's beat pattern and
tempo as usual before recording. However, these
cannot be changed during recording.
The metronome sound will not be recorded.
If one track has been recorded when recording
another track, its tempo and beat pattern will follow
the setting of the first track recorded. If you change
the tempo now, the new tempo will be applied for
both tracks. The time signature cannot be changed
after recording has begun.
Note: If you use the metronome when recording the
accompaniment track, the metronome will play in place
of the drum part of the auto accompaniment.

Record

Your performance can be recorded in the
following ways:
Record Melody Track Only
If the MELODY buttons are selected, the recording
will begin as soon as you play the keyboard.
Note: It is suggested to turn off the fingering mode
when recording on a melody track alone. When the
fingering mode is set to Fingered or Single, the auto
accompaniment section of the keyboard will not be
recorded, although the notes are audible.
Record Auto Accompaniment Track Only
With the Auto Accompaniment ACCOMP engaged,
the recording will start as soon as a chord is played on
the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard.
Note: Notes played on the Melody section of the
keyboard will not be recorded in the Auto Accompaniment
track. If the Auto Accompaniment is off, only the
percussive rhythm will be recorded in the ACCOMP
track. An unrecognized chord in the fingered mode
cannot start the recording.

Record the Auto Accompaniment and Melody Track
If you want to record a melody and the accompaniment
at the same time, press a MELODY track button, then
the ACCOMP track button and both indicators will
blink in the standby mode. Recording begins as soon
as you start to play on any section of the keyboard.
Note: The contents in a track will be erased as soon you
start to record on the selected track. It will be replaced
by the new data that the user is recording.
Note: If the Layer and/or Lower mode are engaged
before entering record, they will be turned off
automatically. When entering the Record mode, the
melody track can record layer or lower performance
by pressing the LAYER or LOWER button, but cannot
record layer and lower at the same time. When Layer or
Lower mode is triggered, pressing another mode button
will toggle to a new one.
Stop Recording
Press the START/STOP button or the REC button to
stop recording. When the accompaniment track is
being recorded, press the INTRO/ENDING button
to stop the recording with an ending pattern in the
accompaniment track.
Note: When the record memory is full, recording will
stop automatically and "End" will appear on the
display screen.

Playback

Press the PLAY/STOP button to hear the recorded
track(s). The PLAY/STOP indicator will light up,
and the dots of the beat indicator will flash. You
can change the tempo by pressing the TEMPO
button. You may also play on the keyboard while
the recording is playing back. Press the PLAY/STOP
button again to stop the playback. Playback will also
stop automatically when the recording reaches its end.
