Q e uick Guid Record Your Own Performance You can record up to 5 of your own performances and save them as user songs 031 through 035. Once your performances have been saved as user songs, they can be converted to SMF (Standard MID File) format files and saved to USB flash memory (page 96) and used with score display. So when inspiration strikes and you create a great melody, you can save it in both listenable and written score form. ■ Recordable Data You can record to a total of 6 tracks: 5 melody tracks and 1 style (chord) track. Each track can be recorded individually. ● Melody Track [1]-[5 Record the melody parts. ● Style Track [A Records the chord part. NOTE • Up to approximately 10,000 notes can be recorded for the five user songs if you record only to the melody tracks. Up to approximately 5,500 chord changes can be recorded for the five user songs if you record only to the style track. • User songs cannot display a score as is, but they can be converted to SMF (Standard MIDI File) format and stored to USB flash memory (page 96), from which they can be played with score display. Track Configuration To record your own performance, first use the SONG MEMORY [1]-[5] and [A] buttons to specify the track(s) you want to record on. The track you record on determines the part that plays back later. Melody Chords Specify track(s) and record Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5 Track A Right-hand Left-hand melody melody Other performance data Style The parts played by each track when a user song is played back. • Track [1]-Will play back as the right-hand melody part (MELODY R) • Track [2]-Will play back as the left-hand melody part (MELODY L) • Tracks [3]-[5]-Will play back as "other" performance data. • Track [A]-Will play back as the Style (auto-accompaniment) part. NOTE • The Difference Between MELODY R and MELODY L ... Songs are a combination of a melody and an auto-accompaniment style. Normally "melody" refers to the right-hand part, but in this instrument "melody" parts are provided for both the right and left hands. MELODY R is the melody part played by the right hand, and MELODY L is the melody part played by the left hand. 58 DGX-530/YPG-535 Owner's Manual
