For manual punch-in recording, set the recording area by
pressing a pedal switch or button.
✳ To specify the recording area via a pedal switch, con-
nect an optional pedal switch to any of CONTROL
PEDAL jacks 1–4, then call up the Pedal Assign display
(SYSTEM/Control) and set <Assign> of the CON-
TROL PEDAL jack (to which a pedal switch is connect-
ed) to “101:PUNCH-I/O.”
<Procedure>
❶ Make sure that the Mode parameter is set to
M.PUNCH on the Realtime Rec Stand-by display

the sequencer is now in recording standby mode.
❸ Press [F6] (PunchIn) or the pedal switch at the Song
position you want to start recording.
“■” will appear next to PunchIn, showing that the song is
now being recorded.
❹ At your desired end recording Song position, press
[F6] (PunchIn) or the pedal switch again.
“■” will disappear, showing the sequencer is back in its
recording standby mode.
❺ Repeat steps 3 and 4 to continue recording.

cific sequencer data, set its Recording Select OFF.

dow.
❸ Specify whether you want to record each of the follow-
ing sequencer data or not. When recording, set ON and
if not, set OFF.
Channel (MIDI channel): When recording the sequencer data
of all MIDI channels, set this parameter to ALL. If you wish
to record only the sequencer data of a specific MIDI channel,
select that MIDI channel. Normally, this parameter is set to

Changing the Phrase track during record-
ing (Non-stop Loop Recording)
The XP-80 allows you to change the recording destination
Phrase track during loop recording. This will reduce having
to press [STOP/PLAY] repeatedly when recording your per-
formance on several Phrase tracks, and let you create a song
right away.
✳ A Phrase track cannot be selected when you are
recording in a Pattern, or vice versa.
<Procedure>
❶ Make sure that loop recording is underway.
❷ Move the cursor to “TRK.”
❸ Press TRACK/PART [1]–[16] to select a different
Phrase track.
Right after you select a Phrase track, sequencer data will be
recorded on the selected Phrase track.
✳ If you’ve selected Performance mode, selecting another
Phrase track will also select the correspondingly num-
bered Part. To select another Phrase track only (with-
out selecting the correspondingly numbered Part),
change the Phrase track by turning the VALUE dial or
pressing [INC]/[DEC].
Checking instrument sounds or phrases
during recording (Rehearsal)
If you use the Rehearsal function during realtime recording,
your performance will not record while Rehearsal is on. This
is convenient for checking the instrument sound you’ll play
next or for practicing the next phrase you’ll be recording,
while recording drums or performing non-stop loop record-
ing.
<Procedure>
❶ Press [F6] (Rehrsal) during realtime recording.
“■” will appear next to Rehrsal, showing that the rehearsal
mode is active.
✳ The Rehearsal function will be invalid during manual
punch-in recording.
❷ To return to the Recording mode, press [F6] (Rehrsal)
again.
