BASIC
RECORDING
& EDITING
PROCEDURES
Real
time
and
step recording
with
the
QX7
are
remarkably simple procedures. But before
you
try
recording anything,
make
sure that the
MIDI
OUT
from your keyboard
is
connected
to
the
QX7
MIDI
IN
terminal,
and
that
the
MIDI
OUT
from
the
QX7
is
connected
to
the
MIDI
IN
of
your keyboard,
as
shown
in
the basic
connection diagram
given
on page
4.
Also,
note
that
with
the
0X7
YOU
WILL
ALWAYS RECORD ON
TRACK
1.
Real
Time Recording
(JobA-1)
Assuming
that
you
are
just starting
and
that
nothing has
been
recorded
in
the
0X7,
both
TRACK
LEDs
will
be
out,
as
will
the
RECORD
and
START
LEDs,
and
job
A-1
(REALTIME
REC) on
the job
lists
will
be
selected.
Set
the
TEMPO
control
for
the desired
tempo—
indicated
by
the flashing
dot
at
the
lower

Now
press the
START
button
and
the
0X7
will
give
you
a
two-measure
count
in:
the
metronome
will
beep 8
times

4/4
time,
the
default
time
signature,
is
selected)
and
the
digital
LED
display
will
count from
-8
to
-1.
All
you
have
to
do
is
start
playing
on
the
keyboard from
the
first
measure, using the
metronome
as a
rhythmic guide (note
that
the
metronome
beeps
at
a
higher
pitch
on
the
first
beat
of
each
measure).
When
you're
finished,
press the
STOP/CONTINUE
button
to
exit
the record
mode. Note
that
if
you
press the
STOP/CONTINUE
button
in
the
middle
of a
measure,
the record
mode
will
be
exited
at
the
end
of that
measure.
Now,
to
hear
what you
have
just
recorded,
simply
press the
START
button.
Tempo
can be
adjusted during playback
by
using the
TEMPO
control.
When
playback
finishes
the playback
mode
will
be
exited
and
the
LED
display
will

dicating the
