The MEMORY FULL indicator tells how much recording
time is left. The MEMORY FULL indicator light flashes when
the recorded data reaches 90% of the card's capacity, then
stays on when 100% capacity is reached.
6. Press the Stop button to end recording.
* Recording will also stop if a Stop signal is received from the
connected MIDI device.
• Some MIDI sequencers output MIDI sound generator
setup messages (tone settings for each part, volume
information, effects data, and so on) when a song is
selected, and this may prevent MIDI messages from
being recorded correctly when recording with the AR-
200R begins. In such instances, start recording with the
AR-200R first, then after this select and play back the
song from the MIDI sequencer.
• In recording MIDI with the AR-200R, the recording
tempo is set at 120 (tempo information is not stored).
• You cannot change the phrase number afterward, so be
sure select the phrase number you want to record before
you start recording.
Using MIDI Signals to Start and Stop Recording
With the AR-200R, you can do things such as have recording
start upon reception of a start message from another MIDI
device, as well as have a recording in progress be stopped
upon reception of a stop message. During recording standby,
recording starts when a System Real time start message
(FAH) is received, and stops when a stop message (FCH) is
received.
Furthermore, start (FAH) and stop (FCH) messages are
transmitted when phrases are played back.
