Performance Memory
Data from an external MIDI device such as a sequencer or music computer can also be recorded to the Performance
Memory as follows:
Z
Connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the trans-
mitting device to the Clavinova's MIDI IN terminal
using a standard MIDI cable.
X
To select the external clock mode press the
[ORGAN] VOICE button while holding the
[UTILITY] button. When selected, the [ORGAN]
indicator will light while the [UTILITY] button is
pressed. In this mode the Clavinova is controlled by
an external MIDI clock signal.
C
Select the song number to which you want to
record the data by using the SONG/PHRASE
NUMBER [ ] and [ ] buttons (of course, a prop-
erly formatted floppy disk must already be loaded in
the disk drive).
V
Press the [REC] button while holding the
[UTILITY] button to engage the MIDI record ready
mode. In this mode all tracks (1 through 15) can be
recorded at the same time via the correspondingly
numbered MIDI channels. That is, MIDI data re-
ceived on channel 1 will be recorded on track 1, data
received via channel 2 will be recorded on track 2,
etc.
Original Performance Memory recordings can be played back and controlled in
the same way as described in the Disk Orchestra section, beginning on page 30.
You can individually select tracks to play back (page 31), use the guide function
and keyboard guide lamps with the data recorded on tracks 1 and 2 (page 32), and
use the A-B repeat function (page 33).
The RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS volume controls can be
used to adjust the volume of the corresponding accompaniment parts when
playing back data that was recorded with ABC.
When playing back data that was recorded without ABC, however, these
volume controls have the following track assignments.
B
matches that of the data you are going to record (e.g.
4/4, 3/4), and match the Clavinova tempo setting to
that of the data to be recorded.
N
music computer, or other device. Recording will start
and stop automatically.
