Realtime Recording
In the BASIC page, you can record your original rhythm pattern from the keyboard.
Recording Rhythm Channels 1–2
The procedure below applies to step 4 in the Basic Procedure on
• (PSR-S975) If you select an Audio Style as the basic data:
Playback of the Audio part can be turned on or off via the [H] (AUDIO PART) button, but it cannot be
edited or deleted. Note that the rhythm pattern of this part will be used in the new Style you intend to
create. If you want to create a rhythm phrase in addition to the Audio part, follow the steps below.

From the BASIC page, while holding down the [F] (REC CHANNEL) button, press the
[1
] or [2
] button to select the desired channel as the recording target.
A Rhythm channel can be selected as the recording target no matter whether already recorded data is
included or not. If already recorded data is included in the selected channel, you can record notes
additionally to the existing data.
Realtime Recording Characteristics in the Style Creator
• Loop Recording
Style playback repeats the rhythm patterns of several measures in a “loop,” and Style recording is also
done using loops. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two
measures are repeatedly recorded. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition (loop),
letting you record while hearing previously recorded material.
• Overdub Recording
This method records new material to a channel already containing recorded data, without deleting the
original data. In Style recording, the recorded data is not deleted, except when using functions such as
Rhythm Clear (
) and Delete (
). For example, if you start recording with a two-
measure MAIN section, the two measures are repeated many times. Notes that you record will play
back from the next repetition, letting you overdub new material to the loop while hearing previously
recorded material. When creating a Style based on an existing internal Style, overdub recording is
applied only to the rhythm channels. For all other channels (except rhythm), you need to delete the
original data before recording.
