You can use Song Memory to record your lesson play (lesson
recording) and to record your keyboard play along with the
Auto Accompaniment you are using (performance recording).
Parts and Tracks
How data is recorded to Song Memory and the type of data
that is recorded depends on whether you are performing a
performance recording operation or a lesson recording
operation.
Lesson Recording
With lesson recording, you use the LEFT/TRACK 1 button
and the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button to select recording of only
the left-hand part, only the right-hand part, or both the left-
hand and right-hand parts.
Performance Recording
With performance recording, Song Memory operates like a
tape recorder or sequencer. In this case, you can use the LEFT/
TRACK 1 button and the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button to select
the Song Memory track you want to record to.
Performance recording records the data shown in the
illustration below, using two memory tracks.
• Since each track is independent of the other, you can edit a
recording by re-recording only one of the tracks.

Using the SONG MEMORY Button
When performing a performance recording or lesson
recording, you will need to use the SONG MEMORY button
to select recording or playback. Each press of the SONG
MEMORY button cycles through the song memory options
in the sequence shown below.
Song Memory Capacity
Song Memory can hold a total of approximately 12,000 notes,
which can be divided between a lesson recording and a
performance recording. Note that you can use up all 12,000
notes for either the lesson recording or the performance
recording. If you do, you will not be able to record anything
for the other type of recording.
• When the number of remaining notes becomes less than
about 100 while you are recording, the SONG MEMORY
indicator and the track/part indicator (L, R) will start to
flash at high speed.
• Recording will stop automatically if Song Memory becomes
full.
If you are using Auto Accompaniment or a rhythm, they will
also stop playing at this time.
IMPORTANT!
• Never turn off the keyboard while it is recording or
standing by for recording to Song Memory. Doing so will
cause all of the song data currently stored in the Song
Bank user area to be deleted.
