This piano is equipped with a real time recorder, able to store four songs, each with a 3- track sequencer.
It will record all note events and the accompaniment as they are performed. This recorded information
will not be lost when the power is turned off. All the tracks can playback separately, in any combination or
together as a complete song.
Prepare to record by setting the voice, style, tempo, reverb level and any other parameters as desired,
these settings can be stored into a registration memory for easy recall. Please refer to registration
memory section for more information.
The USER SONG button assigns the sequencer bank where the recorded information will be stored.
When a user song is selected, if there is recorded information on any of the tracks within that user song
the track indicators will also be lit. If you do not wish for previously recorded tracks to play while you are
recording, press the corresponding track button to turn the indicator light off.
There are two tracks available for recording the melody, these are assigned by pressing the MELODY 1
or the MELODY 2 button. The Melody tracks will record all melody notes as played.

accompaniment events as they sound. If there is information already recorded on a track selecting that
track for recording will immediately erase the existing recording.

• Record Melody Track Only

play on any section of the keyboard.
♫ Please note, it is recommended you turn off the auto accompaniment when recording on a
melody track alone. When the fingering mode is set to Fingered or Single, the auto accompa -
niment section of the keyboard will not be recorded, although the notes are sounding.
• Record Auto Accompaniment Track Only

as a recognized chord is played on the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. Notes
played on the Melody section of the keyboard will not be recorded in the auto accompaniment
track. If the auto accompaniment is off, only the percussive rhythm will be recorded in the
ACCOMP track.
♫ Please note, an unrecognized chord in the fingered mode cannot start the recording.
