Recording Keyboard Performances
Your digital piano features the following two different methods for recording your keyboard performances. These
methods can be used as described below depending on your requirements.
MIDI recording
When you record a performance using MIDI, it will be saved on the instrument or a USB flash drive as a MIDI
song (SMF format 0). This method allows you to record two parts separately, meaning that you could, for exam-
ple, create a song by recording the left-hand part and then recording the right-hand part. Alternatively, you could
combine the two parts of a duet to form a song. What’s more, you can also re-record one of the parts if necessary
and even change Voices and tempo. Up to ten MIDI recordings can be stored on the instrument itself.
Audio recording
Performances recorded in audio format are saved on a USB flash drive in the form of an audio song. This method
does not support the recording of individual parts. Audio recordings created using your digital piano are saved in
44.1-kHz, 16-bit, stereo .wav format, which is the same as standard CD-quality audio. For this reason, you can
easily move them to a portable music player for playback using a computer. The total available duration of record-
ing depends on the size of the USB flash drive being used. The instrument itself supports individual recordings of
up to 80 minutes in length.
1
If necessary, plug a USB flash drive into
the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.
Songs in MIDI format can be recorded either on
the instrument itself or on a USB flash drive.
Audio songs must be recorded on a USB flash
drive. Be sure to read the section “Working with
USB flash drives” (page 30) before recording on a
USB flash drive.
2
Select the recording method.
To record in MIDI format:
Press the [SELECT] button as many times as nec-
essary to show “USr” if you wish to record on the
instrument itself or “Sng” to record on a USB
flash drive.
To record in audio format:
Press the [SELECT] button as many times as nec-
essary to show “Aud” (for saving your recording
on a USB flash drive).
3
Select a song number for the recording
using the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons.
U.00 to U.09 .... MIDI-format User Songs stored
on the instrument itself
S.00 to S.99 .... MIDI-format User Songs stored
on a USB flash drive
A.00 to A.99 .... Audio-format User Songs
stored on a USB flash drive
If you activate Record mode without selecting a
song number, your performance will be recorded
to the currently selected song. If, however, the cur-
rent song is an audio-format Import Song, an A-
type song number will be selected; alternatively, a
U-type song number will be selected in the case of
an MIDI-format Import Song. Meanwhile, if a
Preset Song is currently selected, a U-type song
number will be selected for recording. If the corre-
sponding song already contains data, it will be
overwritten.
