Recording your own music
The Record feature allows you to record your keyboard performances and saving them to internal or
external memory devices. EVENT-X can record everything on the keyboard in either MIDI or AUDIO
format. You can record music in any musical form or style arrangements too: from piano solos to
symphonic performances, from rock to jazz, from Afro Pop and dance music to classical music, from
avant-garde music to blues, and from children's songs to the most sophisticated soundtracks.
Recording Modes – AUDIO or MIDI
Press the red RECORD button on the front panel to display the RECORDING page. EVENT-X
will ask you to choose the recording format you wish to record in:
• Touch the MIDI icon on the screen to create a MIDI file recording that contains
everything you do on the keyboard in real time with elements of VOICE 1. This is
usefull when you want to record single tracks with EVENT-X’s internal sound engine.
• Touch the AUDIO icon on the screen to record an audio format (WAV) stereo file that
contains everything you have done in real time on the keyboard capturing VOICE 1,
VOICE 2, Drawbar, LOWER 1-2-3, Style/Arranger, and MICRO 1 and MICRO 2 inputs, in
other words, your entire performance.
• Touch STYLE SONG button on the screen to record a Song event (Song Mode), i.e., a
piece of music built using the accompanying patterns of the styles of the arranger
section only. The music / chord progression and activation of Arranger buttons Arr A,
B, C, D, Fill in, Breaks ... etc) is what gets recorded and played back. Note: Audio parts
of styles cannot be recorded.
You can record this time, without any duration limit but for the size of your SSD drive.
Nevertheless, we advise you not to exceed 10 minutes of continuous recording.
