(2) To record each part separately: You can also record the parts of your performance independently; for example, first recording the chords and bass to the song (using the Lower and Pedalboard), and after that recording the melody. This function also lets you record keyboard percussion and performance control data, such as registration changes and expression pedal operation, separately from the other parts of the song. 1 Set up the M.D.R. for recording, as you did in the section above. The first steps in recording parts separately are the same as for normal recording on page 71: 1.

(2) To record each part separately:
You can also record the parts of your performance
independently; for example, first recording the chords and
bass to the song (using the Lower and Pedalboard), and
after that recording the melody.
This function also lets you
record keyboard percussion and performance control data,
such as registration changes and expression pedal operation,
separately from the other parts of the song.

section above.
The first steps in recording parts separately are the
same as for normal recording on page 71:

performance to the Registration Memory
