Record A Keyboard - Korg D1600mkII Owner's Manual

Check the recording mode
If you've already checked the recording mode, there's no need to check it
again; if so, proceed to the next step.
1. Access the [RECORD] "RecMode" tab page, and make sure that
"Select RecMode" is set to "Input."
Record
1. Set the recording-start location to the beginning of the song.
At the beginning of the song, the counter value will be "001.01.000"
or "000:00.000".
To move to the beginning of the song, press the counter value and
turn the [VALUE] dial to the beginning of the song ("001.01.000" or
"000:00.000").
Alternatively, you can hold down the [STOP] key and press the
[REW] key to move to the beginning of the song. However if you are
already at the beginning of the song, holding down the [STOP] key
and pressing the [REW] key will take you to the preceding song, so
check the current location before you use this method.
2. Hold down the [REC] key and press the [PLAY] key to begin record-
ing.
3. When you have finished recording, press the [STOP] key.
Play back
1. Hold down the [STOP] key and press the [REW] key to return to the
beginning of the song.
2. Press the [TRACK STATUS] key to select PLAY for the track you just
recorded.
3. Press the [PLAY] key to play back.

2. Record a keyboard

Here's how to record a keyboard in stereo.
Connect your keyboard
1. Use the top panel [TRIM] knobs to set INPUT 5 and INPUT 6 to the
minimum setting (+4 dB).
2. Lower the [MASTER] fader, and connect your keyboard to the
[INPUT 5] and [INPUT 6] jacks.
Assign the inputs to mixer channels
1. Press the [INPUT/TUNER] key to access the [INPUT/TUNER] "Ch
1–8" tab page.
2. Select the "Ch 5" icon, and use the [VALUE] dial to select "INPUT 5."
In the same way, select the "Ch 6" icon and use the [VALUE] dial to
select "INPUT 6."

For details on the counter dis-
play and moving the time loca-
tion, refer to "Changing the time
location" (→p.46).
When using stereo input, you
will be able to edit tracks and
effects most efficiently if you
select an odd-numbered and
even-numbered pair of inputs
(1–2, 3–4) and assign them to
adjacent mixer channels.
