The Tyros4 not only lets you play back commercially available MIDI
songs, but also allows you to create your original songs by recording
your performance. The recorded performance is made up of 16 parts
(channels)—Keyboard parts, Multi Pad parts and Style Playback parts
as shown below—and saved as a MIDI song. This chapter explains
how to quickly and easily record your performance as a MIDI song,
and shows you how to play back MIDI songs on the instrument.

NOTE
When recording without Style playback,
turning the [METRONOME] on makes
your recording sessions much more
efficient. The Metronome tempo can be
adjusted by TEMPO [-]/[+] buttons.
