If you want to keep this data, it is possible to copy it to disk by following the procedure outlined below. CAUTION • Any of the following operations will erase all data in the internal memory. Be sure to copy the data in memory to disk before: 1: Turning the power switch OFF. 2: Loading a PianoSoft disk (including the supplied disk). 3: Inserting any disk and selecting a song number. Z While holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button, press either the SONG [r] and [f] button several times until "cPy" appears on the display. Release the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button when "c_ _" appears on the display. X Use the TEMPO [v] or [w] button to select the song number to which you want to copy the data. C Insert the disk you want to copy the data to. V Press the [PLAY] button. If no previous data exists in the specified song number "cPy" will appear on the display and the data in the CLP-156 memory will be copied to the disk. If the specified song number already contains data, "n y" will appear on the display. In this case press the TEMPO [v] button (yes) if you want to go ahead with the copy operation, thereby erasing the previous data, or the TEMPO [w] button (no) if you want to cancel the copy operation and leave the existing data intact. In the latter case repeat the procedure, selecting an empty song number. PLAY REC Playback To play back what you've recorded, simply press the RECORDER [PLAY] button. Playback starts from the beginning of the recorded data, and will stop automatically at the end of the recorded data. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the [PLAY] button. To mute a track so that it doesn't play back, press the corresponding track button so that its indicator goes out. Also refer to the "Disk Playback" section (page 16) for other playback functions. NOTE • If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will stop when playback is stopped. • The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal. 20
