Quick Recording which lets you record performance conveniently and quickly,
Multi track Recording which lets you record several different parts to multiple
channels, and Step Recording which lets you enter notes one by one. You can also
edit the Songs you've recorded.

This convenient and simple recording method lets you quickly
record your performance—useful, for example, in recording solo
piano pieces. You can record to the [TRACK 1 (R)] or [TRACK 2
(L)] button, and also to the [EXTRA TRACKS (STYLE)] track,
which can be used for recording at the same time.
This lets you record a whole Song including several different
instrument parts, to create the sound of a full band or orchestra.
Record the performance of each instrument part one by one
and create fully orchestrated compositions. You can also record
over already-recorded parts of an existing Song (Preset Song or
a Song on USB storage device) with your own performance.
This method lets you compose your performance by "writing"
it down one event at a time. This is a non-realtime, manual
recording method – similar to writing music notation onto
paper. You can input notes, chords and other events one by
one (realtime performance is not needed).
