Recording a MP3/WAV audio file
The CA97/CA67 digital piano is also capable of recording performances as digital audio – saving the data to a USB
memory device in either MP3 or WAV format. This useful function allows professional quality recordings to be
produced directly on the instrument – without the need for additional sound equipment – then emailed to friends
and family, listened to away from the instrument, or edited and remixed further using an audio workstation.
In addition, the LINE IN audio will also be mixed and recorded to the MP3/WAV audio file.
