Real-time Recording
With Real-time record, the CP records your performance as you are playing it, in real-time. You can
select any of the sixteen instrument tracks or the Style and tempo tracks to record, but you can
only record on one track at a time. Since the Advanced Recorder only records on one track at a
time, only the RIGHT 1 Part is active in the Advanced Recorder. Any other active Parts are
automatically turned OFF when the ADVANCED RECORDER button is pressed. In addition to
selecting the desired track to record, the Real-time recording screen provides many other useful
Real-time recording functions.
To use Real-time recording:
1) From the Advanced Recorder menu, press the L2 button to select “Real Time REC”, or simply press
the REC button. The REC button LED will blink and the LCD screen will display the “Real Time REC”
screen.
2) Use the F, L and R buttons to select a function to edit. Use the Dial to change the values.
