Using the Recorder Changing the Initial Settings The initial voice (including dual mode), damper pedal, soft pedal, and tempo settings made in step 2 of the recording procedure are actually recorded by the CLP-311. These initial settings can be changed after the recording is finished by pressing the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode, making the required changes, and then pressing the [REC] button again to exit from the record ready mode and register the changes. If you do this, be careful not to press the [START/STOP] button or a key on the keyboard, either of which will start recording and erase all previous recorded data. Erasing the recorded data The recorded data can be erased by first pressing the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode, and then pressing the [START/ STOP] button twice without recording any data. RECORDER START/ STOP REC RECORDER START/ STOP REC MIDI/TRANSPOSE Playback To play back what you've recorded, simply press the RECORDER [START/STOP] 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 [START/ STOP] button. NOTE • It is possible to play along on the keyboard during playback. • The playback volume and tempo can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] and [TEMPO] controls, respectively. • If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will stop when playback is stopped. • All recorder data will be erased when the CLP-311 power is turned off. It is possible to store recorded data to an external MIDI storage device such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit by using the Bulk Dump function described on page 16. • The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector. Fast Forward Playback When you want to locate a specific point in a recording you can quickly move forward through the recording while monitoring the sound by pressing the [REC] button while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. 12
