Using the MIDI Recorder to Record or Playback Performances

The MIDI recorder records Digital Piano keyboard play as MIDI data.
• CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. takes no responsibility for any damages, lost profits, or claims by third parties arising
from the deletion of recorded data due to malfunction, repair, or for any other reason.
■ MIDI Recorder
Your Digital Piano has two recorders: a MIDI recorder and an audio recorder. The MIDI recorder does not record sound itself
(audio data) but records keyboard performance information (key press and release, touch strength, etc.) as MIDI data.*
• One recorded song can be in memory at a time. Starting a new recording deletes any data that was previously recorded in
memory.
• The left track and right track can be recorded individually and combined into a single song.
Left-hand part track
Right-hand part track
• Up to approximately 10,000 notes (total of two tracks) can be recorded for a single song.
* MIDI
MIDI is short for "Musical Instrument Digital Interface". It is a universal standard that makes it possible for musical instruments,
computers, and other devices to exchange performance information (keyboard key press/release, touch pressure, etc.) regardless
of manufacturer. Performance data in this case is called "MIDI data".
