6. USING THE RECORDER
The CL piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder,
and it is just as easy to use. The CL piano records a song as digital data
instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument. Because
the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when
you play it back. You can, for example, adjust the tempo without changing
the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded.
Once you understand the recorder, you will find it to be a useful tool for
both practicing and playing the piano.
RECORDING A SONG
(1) Press the REC button when you are ready to record. The LED indicator
will start flashing telling you that the piano is ready to record.
(2) Now play some music on the piano. The recorder will automatically
start recording with the first note you play. You can also start recording
by pressing the PLAY/STOP button.
(3) Press the PLAY/STOP button when you’re finished recording. The
CL piano will stop recording and the LED display will flash momentarily
while the song is saved to memory.
(4) If you make a mistake, you can record your piece again. Just repeat
the same procedure. The second recording will completely erase the
first one.
PLAYING BACK A SONG
(1) Press the PLAY/STOP button to play back the song you have just
recorded.
Press the PLAY/STOP button again to stop.
ERASING A SONG
(1) Turn the power off.
(2) Turn the power on again while holding down the PLAY/STOP and
REC buttons.
