Recording MIDI in real time

When you've finished with the "Preparations for recording"
section you can start recording.
This is a method of recording what you're playing on the
keyboard and your controller usage, in real time. This
method of recording is normally used one track at a time,
and is called single track recording.
As an alternative, multitrack recording allows you to
simultaneously record multiple channels of data onto
multiple tracks. This is the method you will use when using
the Drum Track function, the Step sequencer function, and
the arpeggiator to record multiple tracks of musical data at
once, or when you play back existing sequence data on an
external sequencer and record it onto KROSS's sequencer in
real time.
Recording setup
In SEQ> REC page Recording Setup, select the realtime
recording method that you want to use.
Overwrite
By default, this recording method is selected.
This will record your performance by overwriting any
previously recorded data. All data following the measure
where you start recording will be erased.
Normally you will use this method to record, and then
modify the results by using other types of real-time
recording or MIDI event editing.
1. Use Track Select to choose the track that you want to
record.
Play the keyboard; you'll hear the selected track.
