Record mode: Backing Sequence (Quick
Record) page

Backing Sequence (Quick Record) mode allows you to quickly
record your live performance with the Styles. To make things
easier, just two grouped tracks are provided: 

Kbd/Pad

 (Keyboard

and Pads) to record keyboard and pads, and 

Ch/Acc

 (Chords/

Accompaniment) to record Style commands and chords played
on the keyboard.

While in Sequencer mode, press the RECORD button and select
the “Backing Sequence (Quick Record)” option. The Backing
Sequence (Quick Record) page appears.

See “Backing Sequence (Quick Record) recording procedure” on
page 182 for infor
mation on the record procedure.

Page header

See “Page header” on page 174.

Page menu icon

See “Page menu icon” on page 175.

Page sub-header

See “Page sub-header” on page 177.

Recording parameters area

Style

This parameter shows the selected Style. Either press it, or press
one of the STYLE buttons, to open the Style Select window and
select a different Style (see “Style Select window” on page 77).

Free memory

Percentage of remaining memory for recording.

Resolution

Use this parameter to set the quantization during recording.
Quantization is a way of correcting timing errors; notes played
too soon or too late are moved to the nearest axis of a rhythmic
“grid”, set with this parameter, thus playing perfectly in time.

High

No quantization applied.

 (1/32)…

 (1/8)

Grid resolution, in musical values. For example,
when you select 1/8, all notes are moved to the
nearest 1/8 division. When you select 1/4, all
notes are moved to the nearest 1/4 division.

Chord/Acc, Kbd/Pad

These parameters let you define grouped track status during
recording. This status is reflected by the big status indicator
above the track sliders.

Play

The Backing Sequence track is set to play. If there
are recorded data, they will be heard while
recording the other Backing Sequence track.

Mute

The Backing Sequence track is muted. If this
tracks has already been recorded, it will not be
heard during recording of the other Backing
Sequence track.

Rec

The Backing Sequence track is in record. All pre-
viously recorded data will be deleted. After press-

ing 

  (

PLAY/STOP) to start recording, the

track will receive notes from the keyboard and
the MIDI IN connector.

Ch/Acc:

 This Backing Sequence track groups all Style tracks,

together with recognized chords and Style controls and Style
Elements selection. After finishing recording, they will be saved
as Song tracks 9-16, as in the following table:.
