13.1 RECORDING

To start a recording session, press the [REC] button to activate the sequencer's Record
mode. The LEDs of the [TRACK 1] and [TRACK 2] keys will indicate the status of the
tracks, as follows:
• LED off: track not active for recording
• Red LED flashing: track contains data, ready for recording
• Red LED constantly on: track empty, ready for recording
• Green LED: track contains data, ready for playback
You can use the [TRACK 1] and/or [TRACK 2] buttons to set the mode of your choice.
If one track (e.g. track 1) already contains data, it will be possible to record track 2 while
track 1 is playing. In this case, set the green LED of track 1 and the red LED of track 2 on.
However, it is possible not to play one track while another is being recorded, by setting the
relative LED off.
It is also possible to just delete all the data contained in a track (see point 13.3).
NOTE
If a recording is made on a track which contains data (red LED flashing),
the original data will be irretrievably lost.
If you wish to use the metronome, press the [METRONOME] button; you can also modify
the relative settings (Tempo and Time Signature) as described in chap. 12.
However, bear in mind that these data are saved in the song and not in the track, so if the
values are modified the new settings will be applied even to a track recorded earlier with a
different Tempo and Time Signature.
Now set the panel (voices, effects, mode and Balance) to your requirements and set the
track status following the rules explained above.
The instrument is now ready to record. To recording, press the [START / STOP] button or
any keyboard key. The display will show the number of the bar reached and the beat,
synchronised with the metronome tempo and time signature.
NOTE
The downbeat is always displayed, even with the metronome switched off.
