Recording Parts Separately
You can also record the parts of your performance independently. For example, you can first record
the chords and bass to the song (using the Lower and Pedalboard), and after that record the melody.
This function also lets you record Keyboard Percussion and performance control data — such as
Registration changes and expression pedal operation — separately from the other parts of the song.
1.
Set up the M.D.R. for recording, as you did in the section above.
The first steps in recording parts separately are the same as for normal recording on page 88:
1) Memorize all the Registrations needed for your performance to the Registration Memory
numbered buttons, and set the Registration that will be used at the beginning of the song.
2) Insert a formatted disk.
3) Select the song number to which you will record your performance, in the Control Panel
page.
4) Press the REC button to set recording to standby.

Select the parts for recording.
Pressing the REC button in the step above automatically turns on recording for all parts (with
the exception of keyboard percussion). The status of all parts is indicated in the display:
