Realtime Recording Characteristics-Loop Recording and Overdub Recording  Loop Recording Style playback repeats the rhythm patterns of several measures in a "loop," and Style recording is also done using loops. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two measures are repeatedly recorded. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition (loop), letting you record while hearing previously recorded material.  Overdub Recording This method records new material to a channel already containing recorded data, without deleting the original data. In 2 Style recording, the recorded data is not deleted, except when using functions such as Rhythm Clear (page 43) and Delete (page 42). For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two measures are repeated many times. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition, letting you overdub new material to the loop while hearing previously recorded material. When creating a Style based on an existing internal Style, overdub recording is applied only to the rhythm channels. For all other channels (except rhythm), you need to delete the original data before recording. 1 When you want to create a Style based on an existing Style, select the desired Style to serve as the basis for recording/edit- ing before call up the Style Creator display. 2 Call up the operation display.

Realtime Recording Characteristics—Loop Recording and Overdub Recording
Loop Recording
Style playback repeats the rhythm patterns of several measures in a “loop,” and Style recording is also done
using loops. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two measures are
repeatedly recorded. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition (loop), letting you record
while hearing previously recorded material.
Overdub Recording
This method records new material to a channel already containing recorded data, without deleting the original data. In
Style recording, the recorded data is not deleted, except when using functions such as Rhythm Clear (
page 43
) and Delete
(
page 42
). For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two measures are repeated many
times. Notes that you record will play back from the next repetition, letting you overdub new material to the loop while
hearing previously recorded material.
When creating a Style based on an existing internal Style, overdub recording is applied only to the rhythm channels. For all
other channels (except rhythm), you need to delete the original data before recording.
To call up the RECORD display again,
press the [F] (REC CH) button.
NOTE
You can specify the sections to be
recorded by using the Section buttons
on the panel. Refer to step 3 on
page 44
.
You cannot select INTRO 4 and ENDING
4 sections directly via the panel opera-
tion.
