record
and

a

you
will
hear
your
music
just
as
you heard
the
Demo
songs.
While
recording
you
can
select
different
Tone
variations,
layered
Tones
and
effect
settings
(Chorus
and
Reverb).
Everything
you
play
and.all
the
things
you
do
(ie.,
make
Tone
changes,
change
effect
settings,
press
pedals
etc.)
will
be
recorded.
During
playback
you
will
hear
exactly
what
you
recorded.
During
playback
you
can
play
along
with
the
recorded
music
using
any
Tone
variation
you
like.
This
feature
is
useful
for
playing
duet
pieces
by
yourself,
or
for
practicing
the
right
and
left
hand
parts
of
a
song.

* You can record approximately 4,500 notes. However, each press of a
pedal, change of effect setting, or change of Tone variation will also be
recorded
-
all
of
which
require
memory
space.
The
actual
number
of
notes
you can record may therefore be less than 4,500.

the
previously
recorded
performance
will
be
replaced
by
the
new
performance.
