Recording the Performance
Use the following procedure when recording to an external
sequencer.
1.
Turn on the external sequencer’s Thru function.
For details, refer to the following section “About Local
Switch.”
Refer to your sequencer owner’s manual for instructions
on how to carry out this procedure.
2.
Select the Setup for the performance to be recorded.
For instructions on selecting the Setup, refer to p. 54.
3.
Set the Rec Setting.
Use the procedure described in the previous section
“Settings for Recording” to make the following settings.
Rec Mode: ON
Local Switch: OFF
4.
Begin recording with the external sequencer.
5.
Bulk Dump the Setup.
Using the Utility Bulk Dump Temporary in Edit mode,
transmit the contents of the selected Setup to the external
sequencer.

“Transferring the RD-700’s Settings to an External
6.
Perform on the RD-700.
7.
When the performance is finished, stop recording with
the external sequencer.
Recording is now complete.
You can then listen to the recorded performance by
playing it back on the external sequencer.
Exiting Rec Mode
When Rec Mode is set to ON, you cannot change the MIDI
TX settings. When you have finished recording the

section “Settings for Recording” to set Rec Mode to OFF.
NOTE
The settings made in Rec Setting cannot be saved. Rec Setting
automatically switch to “
Rec Mode: OFF, Local Switch:
ON

About the Local Switch
The switch that connects and disconnects the MIDI
connection between the keyboard controller section and the
sound generator section (p. 31) is called the Local switch.
Since essential information describing what is being played
on the keyboard won’t reach the sound generator if the Local
switch is set to OFF, the Local switch should normally be left
ON.
However, if while performing you want to send that
performance data to an external sequencer as MIDI messages
to be recorded, you then perform with the externally
connected MIDI sequencer set to MIDI Thru (whereby data
received from MIDI IN is then output from the MIDI OUT
with no changes made to the data).
In this case, the data sent over two paths, i.e., the data sent
directly from the keyboard controller section and the data
sent from the keyboard controller section via the external
sequencer, ends up being sent to the sound generator section
simultaneously. Thus, for example, even when you play a
“C” key only once, the note “C” cannot be sounded correctly,
as the sound is played by the sound generator section twice.
