Quick Start Guide Recording Keyboard Performances Recording Keyboard Performances Using the recording functionality of your CP5 or CP50, you can record keyboard performances either as MIDI data for internal storage as User Songs or as audio data for saving on a USB flash-memory device as Wave files. Recording a User Song 1 Press the [REC] button. The Record screen will be displayed. 2 Press the [- PAGE] or [1] button to ensure that Page 1 is displayed. Then, turn Knob 1 to select "Song" (i.e., User Song). A song number with which to save your recording will be automatically assigned. If a User Song has been set as the Performance's backing track*, it will be automatically selected for recording, and therefore, its song number will be displayed here. (*: [SONG SETTING] button → [1] button → Type = "UsrSong".) Meanwhile, if the Performance's backing track is a Preset Drum Pattern (PreDrum) or a Wave file (Wave), the next available User Song number will be assigned. 3FD 4POH

NOTE If no User Songs are available for recording (i.e., they all contain data already), an error message will be displayed to notify you of this. In such a case, either free up some memory by deleting unneeded User Songs or set an unneeded User Song as the current Performance's backing track so that it can be overwritten. 3 Press the [PAGE 3] or [2] button to ensure that Page 2 of the Record screen is displayed, and then turn Knobs 1 and 2 to set the recording mode and the measure at which to start recording. NOTE When Mode is set to "replace", existing data will be overwritten with recorded data; meanwhile, when it is set to "overdub", the recorded data will be added to the pre-existing data.
