Multi-channel Recording

Step Recording

The "'Multi" recording mode allows simultaneous realtime (or punch-in) re-
cording of all 16 sequencer tracks. This can be useful when you want to record
complete sequences from another sequencer or music computer which is not
data-compatible with the QY300.
Select the multi mode by pressing the [F1] function key ("MULTI") after selecting
either the realtime or punch-in record mode (step 5 of the realtime record process,
descrilbed above). The record procedure is exactly the same as that described for
realtime or punch-in recording, except that all 16 sequencer tracks are recorded
simultaneously (assuming, of course, that appropriate MIDI data is received on the
corresponding MIDI channels — see "Channel Assignments" on page 18).
The step record mode lets you enter data note-by-note, with precise control
over the timing, length, and loudness of each note. You can record complete
tracks using the step mode, or use it to brush-up and add data to existing tracks.
Select a Song
Place the cursor at the song number and use any data entry method to select
the song number you want to record (01 ... 10). If the song doesn't contain any
data yet, a row of asterisks will appear to the right of the song number
(*********).
Make the Required Voice Assignment(s)
Go to the voice mode ( [F3] key) and assign the voice(s) you want to use to the
track(s) you intend to record, as described on page 14.
