This instrument allows you to record your performance in two ways: MIDI recording and Audio recording. In addition, each way
of recording features two dierent methods: Quick Recording, which is the easiest, most convenient way to record, and Multi
Recording, which allows you to record each channel or each track independently. In this section, we’ll take a look at MIDI Quick
Recording and Audio Quick Recording.
 MIDI Quick Recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to the instrument or a USB ash drive as an SMF (format0) MIDI le. If you
want to re-record a specic section or change Voices and edit other parameters, use this method. This instrument allows you to
record approximately 3MB per Song.
 Audio Quick Recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to the instrument as an Audio le. Recording is done without designating
the recorded part. Since it is saved in stereo WAV format of normal CD quality resolution (44.1kHz/16-bit), it can be transmitted
to and played on portable music players by using a computer. This instrument allows you to record up to 80minutes per single
recording.
Multi Recording
• MIDI Multi Recording: This lets you create a MIDI Song consisting of 16 channels by recording your performance to each
channel one by one.
• Audio Multi Recording: This lets you record your performance several times to make up the complete song, or record
additional performances to an existing Audio le.
For details on Multi Recording, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
MIDI Quick Recording
Before recording, make the necessary settings such as Voice/Style selection. As necessary,
