Recording Your Performance This instrument allows you to record your performance in the following two methods. • MIDI recording With this method, recorded performances are saved to the instrument or a USB storage device as an SMF (format 0) MIDI Song. Since you can record up to two parts separately, you could record the left-and right-hand parts independently, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back. You can also re-record only one part in case your performance was not satisfactory, or even change the Voice or tempo. You can record record up to 10 Songs (approx. 1.5 MB max.) to this instrument. You also can record to the USB storage device as much as the device capacity allows. In both cases, you can only record up to approximately 550 KB per Song. • Audio recording With this method, recorded performances are saved to a USB storage device as an Audio Song. Recording is done without designating the recorded part. Since it is stored in stereo WAV format of normal CDquality resolution (44.1kHz/16bit), it can be transmitted to and played on portable music players by using a computer. The recordable time varies according to the capacity of the USB storage device. This instrument's recordable time is up to 80 minutes per single recording. If you wish to record on a USB storage device, read "Connecting a USB storage device" (page 47) and follow the instructions below after connecting the USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] jack.
