CVP-809/CVP-805 Owner’s Manual

With MIDI Recording, you can create a MIDI Song by recording each part (or channel) independently,
allowing you create a complete piece which may be difficult to play live. For example, you can record the
right-hand part first and then record the left-hand part while listening to the already recorded right-hand
part, or you can record the Style playback first and then record melodies while listening to the already
recorded Style playback.
Here, you will learn how to record right-hand/left-hand parts or Style/melody parts separately. The
keyboard parts are recorded to these channels: Main to channel 1, Left to channel 2 and Layer to channel 3,
and the Style parts are recorded to channels 9 – 16 respectively. If you want to specify the channels and
parts to record, refer to page 80 for instructions.
