ENGLISH 2. Engage Record Ready mode. Press the [REC] button to engage Record Ready mode. This automatically selects an empty song for recording and makes the RIGHT part active. If an empty song does not exist, Song U01 will be selected. Recording does not actually start yet. The amount of memory available for recording will be shown on the LED display in approximate kilobytes. The SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will flash at the current METRONOME tempo setting. You can turn on the metronome in this step, and adjust the tempo by using the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons. (Range: 32-280) Record Ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC] button again. 3. Start recording. Recording will begin automatically as soon as you play a note on the keyboard or press the SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] button. The current measure's number will appear on the display while recording. 4. Stop recording. Press either [REC] or SONG [STOP] button to stop recording. When recording is stopped, dashes appear in the display in succession to indicate that the recorded data is being saved to the instrument automatically. After the data is saved, the song name (U01-U03) appears in the display. The recorded part's indicator will glow green to indicate that it now contains data. (Record mode is disengaged automatically.) CAUTION Do not turn off the power of the instrument when dashes appear in the display in succession. Doing so may delete all song data in the instrument, including external songs (page 34). 5. Play back the recorded performance. Press the SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] button to play back the recorded performance. To stop playback in the middle of a song, press the SONG [STOP] button. Recording Your Performance NOTE The amount of memory available for recording: This value in kilobytes (a unit used of measurement for data) indicates how much space remains available for recording on the Clavinova. You can record up to a maximum of about 11,000 notes on the CLP-265GP depending on pedal usage and other factors. NOTE If you have selected the LEFT part previously in the same song, the LEFT part will automatically be made active when pressing the [REC] button in step 2. NOTE If the metronome was on when you started recording, you'll be able to keep time with the metronome while recording, but the metronome sound will not be recorded. NOTE For more recording information, see page 32. NOTE The left pedal can be assigned to start recording via the "Left Pedal Mode" function described on page 42. NOTE The record part indicator will begin to flash when the recorder memory is almost full. If the memory becomes full during recording, "Full" will appear on the display and recording will stop automatically. (All recorded data up to that point will be retained.) NOTE Pressing the SONG [PLAY/ PAUSE] button to start recording, then pressing the SONG [STOP] button to stop recording will erase all previouslyrecorded data on the selected part.
