Recording will begin as soon as you play a chord on the Auto Accompani-
ment section of the keyboard. If you've selected a MELODY track to record
with the ACCOMP track, a right-hand note will also start the recording proc-
ess. The [REC] indicator lights continuously once recording has started, and
the current measure number will appear on the MULTI DISPLAY.
Recording can also be started by pressing the ACCOMPANIMENT CON-
TROL [START/STOP] button. In this case only the rhythm will begin without
FADE IN/OUT
bass and chord accompaniment until you play the first chord on the Auto Ac-
companiment section of the keyboard.
Play the required chords in the Auto Accompaniment section of the key-
board. If you've also selected a MELODY track to be recorded, play the
melody on the right-hand section of the keyboard.

• Whenever you record using the SONG MEMORY, any previously
recorded material in the same track will be erased and replaced by
the new material.
• You can also start recording from any specified measure number — see
page 42.
• If the SONG MEMORY becomes full while recording, "End" will appear on
the MULTI DISPLAY and recording will stop. Up to approximately 1,600
notes can be recorded in all MELODY tracks in each PAGE MEMORY.
Up to approximately 1,600 chords can be recorded in each PAGE
MEMORY. These figures only apply, however, if only chords or notes are
recorded. The total is reduced when notes and chords are recorded to-
gether.
• If you start recording by pressing the [PLAY/STOP] button, nothing will be
recorded until you begin playing on the keyboard.
• Previously-recorded SONG MEMORY tracks that are turned ON (their
indicators are lit) can be monitored while recording. If you don't want to
hear any of the previous tracks while recording, simply press the corre-
sponding SONG MEMORY TRACK buttons so their indicators go out.
• If you use a function button during recording the corresponding value will
appear on the MULTI DISPLAY when the button is pressed. The measure
number display will resume a few seconds after the button is released.
• The SONG MEMORY ACCOMP track can also be recorded using the
Step Record mode (page 48).
• "---" will appear on the MULTI DISPLAY while the PSR-510 is processing
recorded data.
