Either select the song name from the popup menu, or use
numeric keys 0–9 to specify the song number and then press
the ENTER switch.
When the Song Select window is open, you can use the Find
button to search for Songs by name. The button is marked
with a magnifying-glass icon, and is located at the bottom of
the window to the right of the OK button. For more

Selecting a new song
Choose a Song from the popup menu whose name starts with
"New Song," or use the numeric keys 0–9 to specify the
song number and press the ENTER switch to open the dialog
box. Then use the Set Song Length menu command (on P4:
Track Edit) to specify the number of measures in the song,
and press the OK button.
Note: You can use Set Song Length to change the length of
a song at any time. For instance, when creating a new song
you might set the length to be somewhat longer than
necessary, and then after you have finished recording and
editing, use Set Song Length to specify the correct length.
If MIDI Clock (Global 1–1a) is set to Internal (or Auto,
if no MIDI clocks are being received), changing the song
will cause Song Select and Song Position Pointer
messages to be transmitted.
If MIDI Clock is set to External MIDI or USB (or Auto
MIDI or USB, if MIDI clocks are currently being
received), the KRONOS will change songs in response to
received Song Select messages.
When the song changes, tracks whose track Status is
EXT, EX2 or BTH will transmit Bank Select, Program
Change, Volume, Pan, Portamento, Send1, 2, Post IFX
Pan, and Post IFX send 1, 2 messages on their respective
MIDI channels.
Track Select[MIDI Track01...MIDI Track16, Master
Track, Audio Track01...Audio Track16]
MIDI Track 01–MIDI Track 16: Select the MIDI track that
you want to record. This is also where you make your
selection when editing a MIDI track in P4: Track Edit.
When Multi Rec is off, this also selects the record-enabled
track.
When Multi Rec is on, the Play/Rec/Mute buttons (0–1b,
0–2a) select the record-enabled tracks, regardless of the
Track Select setting.
Use Track Name to give the track a descriptive name.
If other tracks are set to the same MIDI channel as the
selected track, and their Status is set to INT or BTH,
they'll be controlled by the keyboard as well.
Sequencer P0: Play/REC 0–1: MIDI Track Prog Select/Mixer
Also, if other tracks are set to the same MIDI channel as
the selected track, and their Status is set to EXT, EX2, or
BTH, they'll transmit MIDI to external devices. For
another look at this, see the table below.

If you've selected Master Track or Audio Track 01–16,
the settings of the most recently selected MIDI track will
be used.
Master Track: Select the master track if you want to use the
P4: Track Edit page menu commands to edit the master
track. You cannot perform realtime recording or step
recording on the master track by itself.
Audio Track 01...Audio Track 16: Select the audio track
you want to record. You will also select one of these when
you want to edit an audio track in P4: Track Edit, etc.
In the same way as for MIDI tracks, the data will be recorded
on the selected track if you're using single-track recording.
If you want to perform multi-track recording, turn on Multi
REC (0–1a), and use the Play/Rec/Mute buttons (0–1b, 0–
2a) to select the tracks you want to record.
You can record up to four audio tracks simultaneously.
RPPR On/Off
This turns the RPPR (Realtime Pattern Play/ Recording)
function on/off. RPPR lets you assign a pattern to each note
of the keyboard, so that the pattern will playback (or be
recorded) when you press the appropriate key.
On (checked): The RPPR function will be on. If a pattern
has been assigned to each key in the P5: RPPR Setup page,
pressing that key will perform the assigned pattern. For
details, see "5–3: RPPR Setup" on page 604.
Metronome
Only REC: The metronome will sound only during
recording.
REC & Play: The metronome will sound during recording
and playback.
Off: The metronome will not sound. However, the pre-count
will sound before recording begins.
Multi REC
On (checked): Multi-track recording setup is enabled.
Select this if you want to record two or more tracks
simultaneously.
Use MIDI multi-track recording if you want to
simultaneously record multiple MIDI tracks of different
channels, such as when recording the output of the KARMA
or RPPR functions, or when recording from an external
multi-track sequencer.
