Recording Your Performances and Creating Songs
— Song Creator
With these powerful yet easy-to-use song creating features, you can record your own keyboard performances and store
them for future recall. Several different recording methods are available: Quick Recording (page 98), which lets you
record easily and quickly; Multi Recording (page 99), which lets you record several different parts; and Step Recording
(page 101), which lets you enter notes one by one. Songs can include not only the voice settings for the keyboard
performance (Main, Layer, Left), but also the effects, auto accompaniment parts, and Vocal Harmony. The recorded song
can be stored to internal memory or floppy disk (page 40, 48).
About Song Recording
There are two methods of recording songs: realtime recording and step recording.
■
Realtime Recording
This method lets you record performance data in real time. There are two ways to use realtime recording:
Quick
and
Multi
.
Quick Recording (page 98)
This is the easiest recording method, and lets you quickly record the piano song
you are practicing. You can select from three parts: right hand, left hand and auto
accompaniment. For example, you can record only your right hand performance,
or you can simultaneously record both your right hand and the auto
accompaniment.
Multi Recording (page 99)
This lets you record a song with several different instrument sounds, and create
the sound of a full band or orchestra. Record the performance of each instrument
individually and create fully orchestrated compositions. You can also record over
an existing part on an internal song or a song on disk with your own performance.
■
This method lets you compose your performance by “writing” it down one event at a
time. This is a non-realtime, manual recording method — similar to writing music
notation onto paper. By using the Event List (pages 110 - 112), you can input notes,
chords and other events one by one.
■
The CVP-210/208 also lets you edit the songs you’ve recorded by the Quick
Recording, Multi Recording and Step Recording methods.
When re-recording a specific section of an already-recorded song, use the Punch IN/
OUT function (page 106).

RECORDING
• The internal memory capacity of
the Clavinova is about 3.3MB.
Memory capacity for 2DD and 2HD
floppy disks is about 720KB and
1.44MB, respectively. When you
store data to these locations, all file
types of the Clavinova (Voice,
Style, Song, Registration, etc.) are
stored together.
• The microphone input signal can-
not be recorded.
• Songs recorded on the CVP-210/
208 are automatically recorded as
SMF (Standard MIDI File format 0)
data. For details on SMF see
page 162.
• Playback of the recorded song
data can be transmitted from MIDI
OUT, letting you play the sounds of
a connected external tone genera-
tor (page 149).
• The volume level of each channel
of the song can be adjusted from
the Mixing Console and the set-
tings can be saved. Moreover, even
after you’ve set a voice for your
keyboard play during recording,
you can record voice selections, so
that the voice changes automati-
cally during playback (page 109).
