5 Recalling Recorded Registrations (and Bulk Data) The registrations (and bulk data) recorded to song numbers in the above operation can be loaded back to the Electone by simply selecting the appropriate song number and pressing the PLAY button. When the operation has been completed, the M.D.R. returns to STOP status. The M.D.R. also makes it possible to use more than the 16 Registration Memory registrations (eight for the EL-500) in a performance-without having to alter the current panel settings. This would come in handy when performing several songs in succession that use more than 16 registrations (eight for the EL-500). To do this: 1 First record the registrations you need into several song numbers on the M.D.R. before the performance. (You should also try to record them in the order that you'll use them, if possible.) Music Disk Recorder 7 2 During the performance, after all 16 registrations (eight for the EL-500) from a certain song number have been used, select the next song number and press the PLAY button on the M.D.R. This replaces all 16 registrations (eight for the EL-500) in Registration Memory with the new ones from the selected song number. NOTE: 3 By repeating the above steps, you can run through an entire performance without having to change the panel settings. Selecting the Next Song in the User Registration Shift settings makes it possible to have the M.D.R. automatically read the 16 registrations (eight for the EL-500) in the next song number. See page 81 for more information. 6 Replacing Registrations The M.D.R. also lets you change the registrations of an existing song without changing the performance data. The procedure is the same as that of Recording Registrations mentioned in the previous page. 94
