Song Mode - Part 2: Basic Recording s Multi-channel Recording The "Multi" recording mode allows simultaneous realtime (or punch-in) recording of all 16 sequencer tracks.

Select the multi mode by pressing the [F1] function key ("MULTI") after selecting either the realtime or punch-in record mode (step 5 of the realtime record process, described above).

Song Mode — Part 2: Basic Recording
■
Multi-channel Recording
The “Multi” recording mode allows simultaneous realtime (or punch-in) re-
cording of all 16 sequencer tracks. This can be useful when you want to record
complete sequences from another sequencer or music computer which is not
data-compatible with the QY300.
Select the multi mode by pressing the
[F1]
function key (“MULTI”) after selecting
either the realtime or punch-in record mode (step 5 of the realtime record process,
described above). The record procedure is exactly the same as that described for
realtime or punch-in recording, except that all 16 sequencer tracks are recorded
simultaneously (assuming, of course, that appropriate MIDI data is received on the
corresponding MIDI channels — see “Channel Assignments” on page 18).
Step Recording
The step record mode lets you enter data note-by-note, with precise control
over the timing, length, and loudness of each note. You can record complete
tracks using the step mode, or use it to brush-up and add data to existing tracks.
1
Select a Song
Place the cursor at the song number and use any data entry method to select
the song number you want to record (01 … 10). If the song doesn’t contain any
data yet, a row of asterisks will appear to the right of the song number
(********).
2
Make the Required Voice Assignment(s)
Go to the voice mode (
[F3]
key) and assign the voice(s) you want to use to the
track(s) you intend to record, as described on page 14.
Asterisks indicate song contains no data.
