Using the recorder function
(Recorder mode)
The KR-55 Pro has a built-in recorder that can record a variety
of input sources. You can use this in a variety of ways, such
as for reviewing your own personal practice sessions, or for
keeping a record of your musical ideas.
Here we explain recording in Recorder mode. The content
that you can record differs as follows depending on the mode.
• Rhythm mode: Your performance is recorded along with
the rhythm style playback.
• Recorder mode: Your performance is recorded. Your
performance can also be overdubbed onto the recorded
song data.
• Player mode: Your performance is recorded along with the
playback of the audio file.
Note: The BASS, TREBLE, and ACOUSTAGE effects cannot
be recorded. The REVERB effect applied to the input audio
from the MIC IN, INPUT 1, and 2 jacks can be recorded.
The recorded data is saved on an SD card inserted in the
SD card slot. In order to record, insert the SD card into the
SD card slot before you turn on the power (See page 7
"Inserting or removing an SD card").
