Recording Your Performance
Using the Metronome/
Rhythm (CLP-585/575/545)
You can use the Metronome/
Rhythm while recording. While
the Metronome sound cannot
be recorded, the Rhythm
sound can. Make sure to start
the Rhythm playback after
entering the Recording mode,
since entering the Recording
mode during the playback of
Rhythm stops its playback.
NOTE
If you want to record the left-
hand and right-hand parts
individually, refer to "MIDI
Recording—independent
Tracks" (page 53), since the
Recording method here
assumes that both the left and
right parts are being recorded
together.
NOTE
The "Song – Keyboard" Volume
Balance will not be recorded.
NOTE
With MIDI recording, the
performance will be recorded
to Track 1. However, in the
Dual/Split mode, the tracks
assigned for recording and the
tracks actually used for
recording are different. For
details refer to "Recording
Track Assignment" on page 53.
NOTE
Pressing and holding the []
button for a second will call up
the display which lists the
Recording Target Songs. In this
case, select [New Song] then
press the [>] button referring to
the table on page 55.

as a Rhythm starts:

[METRONOME/RHYTHM]
button to start Rhythm
playback and MIDI recording
