NORMAL REC / NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK)
You can replace the whole audio data of a track by NORMAL REC or mix the audio data
with the previous one by NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK). The NORMAL REC
(PLUS PLAYBACK) method does not add any tracks but simply mixes the new recording
to the existing data. After stopping recording, the data will be erased from the stop point.
1
Execute Steps 1–2 in “Editing the Recorded Data (Multi Track
Recording File)” on
to select the recorded data to be
re-recorded.
2
Use the [F] (TRACK SELECT) button to select the track to be re-
recorded.
3
Use the [B]/[C] buttons to select a recording method.
• Replace the whole data: NORMAL REC
• Mix the recorded data: NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK)
4
If you select “NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK),” play back the
recorded audio and practice the part that you want to overdub
while the audio is playing. Change the volume settings if nec-
essary.
If you wish to add a keyboard-played Voice from the Tyros4, select the desired
Voice. If you wish to record your singing voice or an external instrument, connect
a microphone or instrument and make the appropriate settings. Adjust the Track
Play and Rec Monitor levels here as desired.
5
Press the [REC] button to enable recording.
Re-recording the Multi Track Recording File
Re-recording of the data repeatedly will
result in deterioration of the sound
quality.
The data is automatically saved in
the internal HDD, but you want to
backup your data before re-
recording. Copying is the easiest
way to do this. However, since
copying within a folder in the HDD
is not possible, you need to cre-
ate a new folder. For details on
file management, refer to the
Owner’s Manual.
NOTE
NOTICE
Since you will be overdubbing parts
onto this audio, it’s best to keep the first
recording simple. For example, you may
want to record just a rhythm pattern
(such as by playing back a Style) or a
simple bass riff over which you can add
other parts.
