Recording Mode
In the Pattern Record mode various recording modes
have been assigned to[F3] and [F5]~[F7].
[F3]: MULTI
Sets MULTI mode to “on” or “off.” Press [F3],
MULTI is highlighted, MULTI mode is turned on,
and all the tracks can be recorded in real time. This
type of recording is mainly utilized when using an
external sequencer. For example, on the currently
selected track, (the track selected in the
parameters), the performance on the EX 5/7
keyboard is recorded, while at the same time
performance data is recorded on other tracks from
an external sequencer.
In MULTI mode, you can select either Over Dubbing
or Replace type of recording.
When MULTI mode is set to “off,” real time
recording can only take place on one specified track
at a time.
[F5]: STEP
Sets the STEP recording mode to “on” or “off.”
Press [F5], STEP is highlighted and the Step
recording mode is turned on. Then notes can be
programmed in one at a time. Press [F6]~[F7] to
cancel Step recording mode and return to real time
recording.
When STEP is not highlighted, real time recording is
always engaged.
[F6]: OVER(Over Dubbing)
Sets the OVER dubbing recording to “on” or “off.”
Press [F6], OVER is highlighted and the OVER
Dubbing is turned on. When recording in real
time, you can record over previously recorded data.
For example, after first recording a bass drum, you
can use this function to record a snare and high
hat on top without erasing the original data. Press
[F5]/[F7] to cancel the Over Dubbing recording.
[F7]: RPLC(Replace)
Sets Replace recording to “on” or “off.” Press [F7],
RPLC is highlighted and the Replace recording is
turned on. When recording in real time, you can
record over previously recorded data (erasing and
replacing the original data with the new data as
you record). Press [F5]/[F6] to cancel the Replace
recording.
Real Time Recording
Real Time recording is just like a multi-track recorder
where you record as you play on each track (Tr1-8).
There are two types of recording methods, Over
Dubbing (recording over original data but not erasing
it) and Replace (erasing and replacing the original
data). Also there is Multi mode, that when set to “on,”
(lets you record on all the tracks simultaneously) and
when set to “off,” (lets you record one track at a time).
