To record to one track while playing
back from the other track
This procedure is basically the same as that under “To record
notes from the keyboard” on page E-20. The differences are
as described below.
Example: To play back Track A while recording to Track B
• Before starting step 2 of the procedure on page E-20, press
the TRACK A button so the indicator above it is lit.
• When you enter record standby, the indicator above the
TRACK A button remains lit, while the indicator above the
TRACK B button flashes. If the indicator above the TRACK
A button is flashing at this time, press the TRACK B button
so the indicator above it flashes.
• Performing step 4 of the procedure causes Track A play back
and Track B recording to start at the same time. Play on the
keyboard along with the playback of Track A.
• Once you enter record standby, you can also change the
tempo and beat settings. It should be noted, however, that
playback is performed following the last tempo and beat
settings that were used for recording in either of the tracks.
