Yamaha PSR-A5000 User Manual

68 PSR-A5000 Reference Manual
With MIDI Recording, you can create a MIDI Song consisting of 16 channels by recording your performance to each
channel one by one. In recording a piano piece, for example, you can record the right-hand part to channel 1 and then
record the left-hand part to channel 2, allowing you create a complete piece which may be difficult to play live with
both hands together. To record a performance with Style playback, for example, record the Style playback to channels
9–16, then record melodies to channel 1 while listening to the already recorded Style playback. In this way, you can
create an entire Song which would otherwise be difficult, or even impossible, to play live.
1 Call up the MIDI Multi Recording display via [RECORDING]  MIDI [Multi Recording].
When a User MIDI Song is loaded, the Song is set for recording. Even when the Song List mode is selected, a User
Song selected on Song Player is set for recording instead of a Song currently selected on a Song List.
2 If you want to re-record an existing Song, select the desired Song by touching the Song
name, and then press the [EXIT] button to return to the Multi Recording display.
If you want to record from scratch, skip this step.
3 Touch the instrument icon of the target channel to call up the
part setting window, and then specify the part for recording.
Touching [OK] automatically turns [Rec] on of the target channel, and sets it to
recording standby status.
If you want to turn the other channels on or off while recording, touch the channel number of the desired channel.
