Applying Reverb (PX-770)

You can record your performances as audio files to a USB

flash drive and play them back when you want.

Anything played on the Digital Piano is recorded to the USB

flash drive as audio data (WAV file*).

* Linear PCM, 16bit, 44.1 kHz, Stereo

Bottom

■ Recording Capacity

• 99 files (TAKE01.WAV to TAKE99.WAV)

• Approximately 25 minutes maximum recording per file.

■ Recorded Data

• Everything played on the Digital Piano

• Individual part recording is not supported.

■ Recording Data Storage

Each new recording of audio data to a USB flash drive is

automatically assigned a new file name, so existing data is

not overwritten.

■ To record keyboard play

Insert the USB flash drive into the USB flash drive

port.

• When you plug in a USB flash drive, the Digital

Piano performs a mounting sequence to prepare for

data exchange with the USB flash drive. The L and

R lamps flash and Digital Piano operations are

temporarily disabled during the mounting sequence.

• It may take up to 10 or 20 seconds or even longer

for USB flash drive mounting to finish. Do not

perform any operation on the Digital Piano mounting

is in progress.

• A USB flash drive needs to be mounted each time it

is connected to the Digital Piano.

Press the AUDIO REC button once or twice so the

AUDIO REC lamp is flashing.

This enters record standby.

To start recording, press the a button or start

playing.

This starts recording to the USB flash drive.

• Recording can also be started by pressing a pedal

or performing another operation.

• If, while recording is in progress, you want to re-

record from the beginning, hold down the AUDIO

REC button until the Digital Piano beeps. This

indicates an error. For more information, see “Error

Indicators (PX-870)” on this page of these

instructions.

Troubleshooting

If this happens: Do this:

No sound is produced when I

press a keyboard key.

1. Rotate the VOLUME knob more towards “MAX”.

2. Disconnect whatever is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack.

3. Turn on the Local Control setting. For details, refer to the “User’s Guide (Full)”.

The pitch of the Digital Piano

is off.

1. Change the transpose setting to “0”. Or turn power off and then back on.

2. Change the tuning setting to 440.0 Hz. Or turn power off and then back on.

3. Change the octave shift setting to “0”. For details, refer to the “User’s Guide (Full)”.

4. Change the temperament setting to “00: Equal”.

Nothing happens when I press

a pedal.

Check the orientation of the pedal unit plug and makes sure it is inserted as far as it goes.

For the correct plug orientation, see “To connect the cables” under “Assembling the

Stand” of page 4/4 of these instructions.

Tones and/or effects sound

strange. Turning power off and

then back on again does not

eliminate the problem.

Example: No change in

intensity when key press

pressure (touch) is changed

Turn off Auto Resume, and then turn power off and then back on again. For details, refer

to the “User’s Guide (Full)”.

A tone’s quality and volume

sounds slightly different

depending where it is played

on the keyboard.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process,* and does not indicate

malfunction.

* Multiple digital samples are taken for the low range, middle range, and high range of

the original musical instrument. There may be a very slight difference in tonal quality

and volume between sample ranges.

When I press a button, the

note that is sounding cuts out

momentarily or there is a

slight change in how effects

are applied.

This happens while multiple parts are sounding at the same time while using layer, using

the Duet Mode, playing back a built-in tune, recording, etc. Pressing a button when one of

these conditions exists causes the effect setting that is built into the tone to change

automatically, which causes notes to cut out momentarily or a slight change in how

effects are applied. It does not indicate malfunction

I need to reset all Digital Piano

data and settings to their

initial defaults.

Hold down the FUNCTION, MIDI REC and E.PIANO1 buttons, and press the power

button to turn on power.

I need to reset a specific

setting to its initial default.

Hold down the FUNCTION button and press the + and – keyboard keys of the setting at

the same time.
