Recording/Playing Back With A Usb Storage Device (Audio Record/Play Mode); Recording - Yamaha S70XS Owner's Manual

Recording/Playing Back with a USB Storage Device
The Audio Record/Play mode lets you record your keyboard performance as audio data. The recorded audio data will be
saved as an audio file to the root directory of the external USB storage device or internal flash memory, allowing you to
play back the audio file from the specified storage.

Recording

In this section, you'll learn how to record your keyboard
performance as a stereo Wave file (of 44.1kHz/16-bit).
Your keyboard performance can be recorded for up to 74
minutes at a fixed recording level. The instructions below
explain how to record your keyboard performance to a
USB storage device.
1
Press the [AUDIO REC/PLAY] button.
The Audio Rec/Play Select display will appear.
2
Select "Rec" then press the [ENTER] button.
The Standby display will appear.
3
Move the cursor to "Rec Storage" then select
the USB storage device as the target ("usb1-
1" in the example here) by using the data dial
or [DEC]/[INC] button.
NOTE
The "internal" setting indicates the internal flash memory.

4
Move the cursor to "Trigger Level" then
adjust the Trigger Level.
As soon as the signal level (set here) of your keyboard
performance or MIC INPUT exceeds the trigger level,
recording will begin. For best results, set this as low as
possible to capture the entire signal from the very beginning,
but not so low as to record unwanted noise. In this example,
set the Trigger Level to "10."
5
Press the [ENTER] button.
The Recording Standby display appears.
6
Play the keyboard.
Recording actually starts as soon as the signal of your
keyboard performance exceeds the Trigger Level set in step
4.
7
Press the [ENTER] button after your
performance is finished.
