MIDI Recording — Independent Tracks
MIDI
With MIDI Recording, you can create a MIDI Song consisting of 16 tracks by
recording your performance to each track one by one. In recording a piano
piece, for example, you can record the right-hand part to Track 1 then record
the left-hand part to Track 2, allowing you create a complete piece which may
be difficult to play live with both hands together. To record a performance with
Rhythm playback, for example, record Rhythm playback, then record melodies
to Track 1 while listening to the already recorded Rhythm playback. In this way,
you can create an entire Song which would otherwise be difficult, or even
impossible, to play live.
Example:
1
2 3 4
Left-hand part
Right-hand part
When you want to record a new track of an already recorded
MIDI Song:
After selecting the target MIDI Song (steps 1 – 4 on pages 44 – 45), press and hold
the [REC] (Record) button for a second to call up the display which lists the
Recording Target Songs, select the 4th item (the selected MIDI Song), press the [>]
button, then go to step 2 described on this page.
1.
Execute the same operations as in step 1 and step 2 on
page 55 to enter the Recording mode with a new blank
Song selected.
2.
Use the [<]/[>] buttons to select a Recording Track.
When you want to record the right-hand part, highlight "R" (Track 1).
When you want to record the left-hand part, highlight "L" (Track 2).
Alternately, when you want to record your performance to Tracks 3 – 16,
call up the desired one by pressing the [<]/[>] buttons repeatedly. If the
Rhythm playback was recorded first before other tracks, it is
automatically recorded to one of the Tracks 9 – 11 (or all the three tracks).
If this is the case, select the desired track for recording from any except
for these tracks.
3.
Play the keyboard to start recording.
When you want to record the Rhythm playback first, press the
[RHYTHM] button to start recording. When you want to record an
empty section at the start of the Song, press the [PLAY/PAUSE] button to
start recording.

Recording Your Performance
NOTE
If you want to record your
performance to the USB flash
drive or you want to add the
recording to the MIDI Song in
the USB flash drive, refer to
"MIDI Recording to the USB
flash drive" (page 59).
NOTE
Rhythm cannot be added to a
recorded Song. When you want
to record Rhythm, make sure to
record the Rhythm playback
first.
NOTE
Because bass accompaniment
of the Rhythm sounds only
when playing the keyboard, in
order to record the bass
accompaniment, it is
necessary to record keyboard
performance with it as well.
NOTE
If you record your performance
with both hands to R then to L,
both are played back at the
same time as a single Song.
Recording Track
Assignment
• When recording the Rhythm,
you cannot freely select
desired tracks. The Rhythm is
recorded to Tracks 9 – 11.
• When Dual/Split/Duo is on,
only the R1 Voice
performance will be recorded
to the selected Track, and the
R2 Voice performance will be
recorded to the Track number
which is 6 plus the selected
Track, and the L Voice
performance of Split/Duo will
be recorded to the Track
number which is 3 plus the
selected Track.
NOTICE
Note that recording your
performance to a Track
containing data will overwrite
the previously recorded data.
