1.
Select the panel settings needed for recording
the performance.
2.
Enter the recording standby mode by pressing
the [Rec] button.
The [Rec] button indicator will light, and the [Play/Stop]
button will blink.
3.
Press the [Play/Stop] button to start recording.
When you press the [Play/Stop] button, the metronome
will play two measures (bars) of count-in before
recording begins.
If you wish to use Rhythm and Automatic Accompaniment as
you record, press the [Start/Stop] button instead of the
[Play/Stop] button to begin recording. Also, if the [Sync
Start] button is lit (i.e., if Sync Start is ON), recording will
begin the instant you play the Lower keyboard.
4.
Press the [Play/Stop] button when you have
completed your recording.
The Track indicator where a performance song is
recorded will change from a flashing to a constant light.
When you press the [Intro/Ending] button (or [Start/
Stop] button) while recording a Rhythm performance or
Automatic Accompaniment, the Rhythm performance
and Automatic Accompaniment will stop. However, the
recording itself will continue. Press the [Play/Stop]
button to stop recording.
The Play and Stop functions can both be assigned to one of
the foot switches located on each side of the Expression
Pedal (p. 121).
You can also choose to cancel the metronome count-in
before recording starts (p. 207).
