ENGLISH Recording Your Performance Recording Your Performance The ability to record and play back what you've played on the instrument can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two parts separately, you could record the left-and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back. The two-part Song Recorder on the instrument allows the recording of up to three User songs (U01 - U03) to the instrument. User songs can be saved to an optional USB storage device. Recording a performance quickly This convenient and simple recording method lets you quickly record your performance without specifying the recording parts - useful, for example, in recording solo piano pieces. In this way, the performance is automatically recorded to right part. 24 4 3 CLP- 370 CAUTION To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s): If the song contains data, the part indicator lights up green when you select a song. Note that recording new data on this part will erase the existing data. You cannot record the performance to the connected USB storage device directly. The recorded songs are saved to the instrument automatically. If you want to save data to the device, perform the Save operation (page 37) after stopping recording. TERMINOLOGY Recording vs. Saving: The format of performance data recorded on a cassette tape differs from that of data recorded on the Clavinova. A cassette tape records audio signals. The Clavinova "saves" information regarding note timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the Clavinova produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the Clavinova may be more accurately called "saving information." However, this book often uses the word "recording" because it seems to make more sense. 30 CLP-370/340/330, CLP-S308/S306 Owner's Manual

ment can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just
the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing
back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two
parts separately, you could record the left-and right-hand parts sepa-
rately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when
played back. The two-part Song Recorder on the instrument allows the
recording of up to three User songs (U01 – U03) to the instrument.
User songs can be saved to an optional USB storage device.
