Realtime Recording

In the Basic page, you can record your original rhythm pattern from the keyboard.
Realtime Recording Characteristics in the Style Creator
• Loop Recording
Style playback repeats the rhythm patterns of several measures in a "loop," and Style recording is also done
using loops. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure Main section, the two measures are
repeatedly recorded. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition (loop), letting you record
while hearing previously recorded material.
• Overdub Recording
This method records new material to a channel already containing recorded data, without deleting the
original data. In Style recording, the recorded data is not deleted, except when using functions such as
Rhythm Clear
measure Main section, the two measures are repeated many times. Notes that you record will play back from
the next repetition, letting you overdub new material to the loop while hearing previously recorded material.
When creating a Style based on an existing internal Style, overdub recording is applied only to the rhythm
channels. For all other channels (except rhythm), you need to delete the original data before recording.
