Recording a Song

PS/GPS offers two principal Song recording
methods: Quick Rec and Record.
QUICK REC RECORDING
The "Quick Rec" method exploits existing Styles
in order to record your keyboard tracks with au-
tomatic accompaniments. This method is a quick
and easy way of recording which does not involve
the more advanced options common to the more
traditional Song Record method explained after-
wards. The Quick Rec method is an excellent
way of recording backing tracks for vocalists.
RECORD METHOD
The more traditional "Record" method allows you
to record one track at a time and does not exploit
existing structures.
For example, to record a Drum track, you must
build the drum accompaniment note for note us-
ing the individual percussive instruments of a
Drumkit assigned to one of the tracks.
