track 1 changes to "P" (for "Play") when you select track 2 for recording. The small square
above the track status indicator tells us that material is contained on that track.
Press the Record soft button to enter "REC READY" mode.
Press the Play soft button, then begin laying down a bass track.
Remember that by default there is a four beat count off, during which time the Locat value
will be preceded by a minus sign (-). No material is recorded during the count off, though
anything you play during the countoff will be quantized to the Þrst note of the song. As
you are recording the bass track, your drum loop will keep playing. Play for as long as
you want; the sequencer will lengthen the song as needed.
Press the Stop soft button when you are done recording the bass.
You will be given the usual save options. To keep what youÕve just recorded, press the Yes
soft button followed by the Replace soft button.
Since you unlooped the drum track when you recorded the bass, youÕve changed the
endpoint of the song to be wherever you stopped the bass track. You can check the
endpoint (and change it, too, if you want) using the Event Editor, as described earlier.
Set the record track (RecTrk) on the SongMode:MAIN page to track 3.
Notice the small squares above the track status indicators for tracks 1 and 2, reminding
you that youÕve now got material on two tracks.

Press the MISC soft button to bring up the SongMode:MISC page.
Set RecMode to "FixLen".
Since youÕve deÞned the length of your song with the bass track, setting RecMode to
"FixLen" means that the song will just play through once each time you record a new part.
Record the organ in the same way that you recorded the bass track in the previous
section.
Notice that you can do this from the MISC page, without returning to the MAIN page.
Continue recording instruments until you have played all the parts of your song.
