2. Press the Record button located on the front panel. This prepares the PC3A for recording
on the current RecTrk. The Record button lights, and on the Song mode MAIN page the
right of the top line will display REC. READY, which means that the sequencer will record
when the Play/Pause button is pressed (see below.)
3. Press the Play/Pause button located on the front panel. The metronome will play for 1 bar
and then recording will begin (see Chapter 12, Song Mode and the Song Editor for details on
setting metronome count off options.)
4. Play your part for the current track, when finished, press the Stop button on the front panel
to stop recording. The Save Changes screen will be displayed where you can retry the last
performance of recording, save the song with the last recorded performance, or compare
your new performance with the last saved version of the song. For this example we will
name the song My Song under ID# 1025. See below for an explanation of this page:
Soft Button Functions On the Save Changes Page:
The PlyNew soft button allows you to play the song with your latest recorded performance. You
will likely want to hear this first.
Pressing PlyOld will play the current song, minus the performance that you just recorded. You
can toggle between Play Old and Play New without restarting the song by pressing either button
while the song is playing. This is useful to check if your last performance was better or worse
than what was previously saved (if anything was previously saved.)
The Locate field allows you choose a start time for the old or new playback. This is useful when
you just want to hear a certain part of the song without listening to the whole thing. The Playing
field displays whether to NEW or OLD data is playing.
Stop halts the playback of either the Old or the New version of the song you are currently
auditioning. This also resets the song's start location to either the default Bar 1, Beat 1 value, or to
whatever location you defined in the Locate field.
