Recording each part individually (Multi Track Recording)
You can create a Song consisting of 16 channels by recording your performance to each part one-by-one over a different
channel number. In recording a piano piece, for example, you can record the right-hand part as channel 1 then record the
left-hand part as channel 2, allowing you to create a complete piece which may be difficult to play live with both hands
together. To record a performance with Style playback, for example, record the Style playback as channels 9 – 16, and
then record melodies as channel 1 while listening to the already recorded Style playback. In this way, you can create an
entire Song which would otherwise be difficult, or even impossible, to play live.

Each part of a MIDI song can be
recorded with a different channel num-
ber (Ch. 1 – Ch. 16). Because of this
J
] (STOP) format, the performance information of
each part remains separate and is not
mixed — even though all parts will be
saved as one track. This channel num-
ber is referred to as "MIDI Channel."
