When you resume recording after pausing, the
transition may not always be recorded smoothly.
When using this function, we recommend that
you use the metronome while you record, and
pause on the beat that the last recorded note ends.
When you resume recording, you will start from
the beat at which you stopped.
2. Listening to a song you recorded
To play back a song you recorded
1. Look at the Part 1 and Part 2 switch indicators
to see the recorded status of each part.
If a part has already been recorded, its indicator will
be lit green. If you do not wish to hear one of the
recorded parts during playback, press its switch to
make the indicator blink green.
2. Press the Start/Stop switch to begin playback.
During playback, the Start/Stop switch indicator will
blink according to the time signature, red on the first
beat and green on the other beats.
You can use the Tempo slider etc. to adjust the
playback tempo ( p.13).
3. To stop playback, press the Start/Stop switch.
Playback will end, and you will automatically return
to the first measure.
During playback, you can press the Pause switch
(the Pause switch indicator will light) to pause
playback.
To resume playback, press the Start/Stop switch
or the Pause switch.
When all of the recorded data has finished playing,
playback will stop automatically and the Start/Stop
switch indicator will go dark.

The C-6500 can remember this setting even when
the power is turned off.

hold down the Brilliance switch and repeat-
edly press the switch (either Part 1 or Part 2)

3. Erasing parts
To erase a recorded part.
1. With playback stopped, hold down the Trans-
pose/Function switch and press the switch of
the part you wish to erase.
The indicators of the Transpose/Function switch and
the switch whose part you pressed will blink alter-
nately red and green, indicating that you are ready to
erase that part.
+
If you decide to not erase the part, press the Trans-
pose/Function switch again to cancel.
2. Once again, press the part switch that you
pressed in step 1, its performance data will be
erased.
To check the amount of data that has
been recorded
• Simultaneously hold down the Transpose/
Function switch and Start/Stop switch.
+
The amount of performance data that has been
recorded will be shown by the number of sound
selector indicators that are lit. If a larger amount of
data has been recorded, more of the indicators will be
lit.
Indicates the amount of recorded data
During recording, the Record switch indicator will
blink if the amount of available memory decreases to
10% of the total memory.
10% or less means that 1,400 or fewer remaining
notes can be recorded, or that 900 measures have
been recorded (a maximum of 999 measures can be
recorded).
If you want to save your recorded performance,
we recommend that you save it using a computer
or a commercially-available MIDI data filer.
