Recording the Performance
Use the following procedure when recording to an external
sequencer.
1.
Turn on the external sequencer's Thru function.
For details, refer to the following section "About Local
Switch."
Refer to your sequencer owner's manual for instructions
on how to carry out this procedure.
2.
Select the Setup for the performance to be recorded.
For instructions on selecting the Setup, refer to p. 50.
3.
Set the Rec Mode and the Local Control.
Use the procedure described in the previous section
"Settings for Recording" to make the following settings.
Rec Mode: ON
Local Control: OFF
4.
Begin recording with the external sequencer.
5.
Bulk Dump the Setup.
Using the Utility "Bulk Dump" in Edit mode, transmit the
contents of the selected Setup to the external sequencer.
For instructions on carrying out this operation, refer to
"Transferring the RD-300GX's Settings to an External
MIDI Device (Bulk Dump)" (p. 77).
6.
Perform on the RD-300GX.
7.
When the performance is finished, stop recording
with the external sequencer.
Recording is now complete.
You can then listen to the recorded performance by
playing it back on the external sequencer.
Set "Part Mode" to "16PART" in Edit mode when
NOTE
you use the Multi-Effect settings. (p. 66)
Connecting External MIDI Devices
Exiting Rec Mode
When Rec Mode is set to ON, you cannot change the External

use the procedure described in the previous section "Settings
for Recording" to set Rec Mode to OFF.
The Rec Mode and Local Control settings cannot be
NOTE
saved. The settings automatically switch to "Rec Mode:
OFF, Local Control: ON" when the power is turned on.
About the Local Switch
The switch that connects and disconnects the MIDI connection
between the keyboard controller section and the sound
generator section (p. 22) is called the Local switch. Since
essential information describing what is being played on the
keyboard won't reach the sound generator if the Local switch
is set to OFF, the Local switch should normally be left ON.
However, if while performing you want to send that
performance data to an external sequencer as MIDI messages
to be recorded, you then perform with the externally
connected MIDI sequencer set to MIDI Thru (whereby data
received from MIDI IN is then output from the MIDI OUT with
no changes made to the data).

Keyboard Controller
Section
In this case, the data sent over two paths, i.e., the data sent
directly from the keyboard controller section and the data sent
from the keyboard controller section via the external
sequencer, ends up being sent to the sound generator section
simultaneously. Thus, for example, even when you play a "C"
key only once, the note "C" cannot be sounded correctly, as
the sound is played by the sound generator section twice.
