Recording In Dual Or Split Mode - Yamaha P-250 Owner's Manual

Song Operation

Recording in Dual or Split mode

When you record in Dual or Split mode, the P-250
records each voice onto a separate track. The follow-
ing table shows how tracks are assigned to each
voice.
When you record multiple parts into tracks one by one, or
when you record new data over an existing song (see
page 49), the existing data will be erased. Proceed with
caution!
In the following example, Tracks 1, 2, and EXTRA
TRACK "n" have been selected for recording.

The variable "n" represents a track number from 3
through 16.
If "n+1," "n+2," and "n+3" exceed 16, TRACKs 1, 2,
and 3 are used.
A switch between Dual and Split mode in a song will not be
recorded.
