Recording a Song
„ As discussed in the above section, MIDI Rec enables the CP to record incoming MIDI data from an external MIDI
instrument connected to the MIDI jacks. You can set more than one track to MIDI REC, enabling the CP to record on
several tracks simultaneously over MIDI. Each MIDI Rec track will record on the incoming MIDI channel that corresponds
to its track number. Track 1 records MIDI channel 1 and so on.
