DUALITY DIGITAL PIANO
Record
The recording function features a two track recorder that lets you record what you play on the keyboard
and then play it back. Two tracks mean that you can “overdub” one part on top of another, using a
dierent voice if you like.

The recorder feature is a useful addition to any keyboard study program since it lets you hear exactly
how you sound from the listener’s perspective. It can also be just plain fun. This recorded information
is nonvolatile and therefore will not be lost when the power is turned o. The 2 tracks can playback
separately or together as a complete song. The record function records all settings exactly as you
selected and performed them.
Recording
1. Prepare: Prepare to record by setting the voice, tempo, reverb level, or other
parameters as desired.
2. Select a track: There are two tracks available for recording. The tracks are assigned
by engaging the ACCOMP or MELODY buttons.
Press and hold down the REC button, then press the track button that you want to
record in. The corresponding track indicator and the REC indicator will blink, and
the four dots of the beat indicator will blink with the current tempo to show that
the recorder is on standby.
Note1: The contents of a track will be erased as soon you select that track for
recording.
Note2: If you already have recorded on the other track, its track indicator will also be lit
and the recorded music will play as a reference for you while you record the new track.
If you do not wish for the previously recorded track to play while you are recording,
press the corresponding track button to turn the indicator light o.
3. Metronome: Press the METRONOME button to enable the metronome as a
reference, if so desired. The four beat indicators ash, the metronome sounds
without any beat pattern, just giving the tempo. You can adjust the metronome’s
beat pattern and tempo as usual before recording. However, these cannot be
changed during recording.
Note1: The metronome sound will not be recorded.
Note2: If one track has been recorded, when recording another track, its tempo and
beat pattern will follow the setting of the rst track recorded. If you change the tempo
now, the new tempo will be applied for both tracks. Cannot change the beat pattern.
4. Record: If the ACCOMP or MELODY buttons are selected and blinking, the recording
will begin as soon as you play the keyboard or press the PLAY/STOP button.
While recording, the recording track indicator keeps blinking and the REC indicator
it lit solid.
