Other playback

In Sequencer mode, you can also use playback func-
tions such as Loop All Tracks, play Patterns (using the
RPPR function), Track Play Loop, and Cue List.

Recording

The process by which your playing on this instru-
ment's keyboard and controllers is captured on the
tracks or patterns of a song as data is called "record-
ing."
Recording on a track, and recording
on a pattern
Recording on a track
There are two ways to record on a track: realtime
recording and step recording. You can choose from a
further six types of realtime recording.
In addition, you can use event editing to modify data
that has been recorded or to insert data, and use track
editing operations such as Create Control Data to
insert data such as bend, after touch, and control
changes.
Recording on a pattern
There are two ways to record on a pattern: realtime
recording and step recording. For realtime recording,
only one recording type (loop) is available.
In addition, you can use event edit operations to mod-
ify data that has been recorded or to insert data.
The utility menu command "Get From Track" can be
used to take musical data from a desired area of a track,
and use it as the musical data for a pattern. Conversely,
the utility menu commands "Put to Track" and "Copy
to Track" can be used to place or to copy the musical
data of a pattern in a track.
Realtime recording
This is a method of recording in which your playing on
the keyboard and your operations of controllers such
as the joystick are recorded in realtime.
This method of recording is normally used one track at
a time, and is called single track recording.
As an alternative, multitrack recording allows you to
simultaneously record multiple channels of data onto
multiple tracks. This is the method you will use when
using the RPPR function and KARMA function to
record multiple tracks of musical data at once, or when
you playback existing sequence data on an external
sequencer and record it onto this instrument's
sequencer in realtime ( p.64, p.72).
• Overwrite
With this method, the musical data previously on
the track is overwritten by the newly recorded data.
When you perform overwrite recording on a previ-
ously-recorded track, its musical data will be
replaced by the newly recorded data.
Normally you will use this method to record, and
then modify the results by using other types of
realtime recording or event editing.
