This feature lets you create your original Multi Pad phrases, and also allows you to edit existing Multi Pad phrases to
create your own. As with MIDI Song recording, MIDI Multi Pad Recording features Realtime Recording and Step
Recording. However, with MIDI Multi Pad Recording, each Multi Pad consists of only one channel and convenient
recording functions such as Punch In/Out are not available.
Multi Pad—Realtime Recording via MIDI
Before starting operation, note the following points:
• Since only the Right 1 part performance will be recorded as a Multi Pad phrase, you should select the desired Voice
for the Right 1 part beforehand.
• The Super Articulation Voices and the Organ Flutes Voices cannot be used for Multi Pad Recording. If one of these
Voices is set for the Right 1 part, it will be replaced with the Grand Piano Voice when recording.
• Since recording can be done along with and synchronized to Style playback, you should select the desired Style
beforehand. However, keep in mind that the Style is not recorded.
1 If you want to create a new Multi Pad in an existing Bank, select the desired Multi Pad
Bank via the MULTI PAD CONTROL [SELECT] button.
If you want to create a new Multi Pad in an empty new Bank, this step is unnecessary.
2 Call up the operation display via [MENU]  [M.Pad Creator]  [MIDI Multi Pad Record-
ing].
