Song Memory Function
This digital piano lets you record up to five separate songs in
song memory for later playback. There are two methods you
can use to record a song: real-time recording where you record
the notes as you play them on the keyboard, and step
recording where you input chords and notes one-by-one.
NOTE
• Layer and split cannot be used while standing by for
recording or while recording is being performed in the
Song Memory Mode. Also, layer and split are
automatically turned off whenever the digital piano goes
into record standby or starts recording.
Tracks
Digital piano song memory records and plays back much like
a standard tape recorder. There are a total of six tracks, each
of which can be recorded separately. Besides notes, each track
can have its own tone number. Then when you play back the
tracks together, it sounds like an entire six-piece band. During
playback, you can adjust the tempo to change the speed of
playback.

NOTE
• With this digital piano, Track 1 is the basic track, which
can be used to record keyboard play, along with Auto
Accompaniment. Tracks 2 through 6 can be used for
keyboard play, so they are called melody tracks. Tracks
2 through 6 are used to add other parts to what is
recorded in Track 1.
• Note that each track is independent of the others. This
means that even if you make a mistake while recording,
you only need to re-record the track where the mistake
was made.
• You can use different Mixer settings for each track (page
E-39).
