Re-recording (Retry) If you make a mistake during recording, you can re-record the song from the beginning. 1 Press the [RETRY] button while the song is still running. This automatically stops recording and returns you to the starting point of the song. 2 Press the [F] (Play) or [CUSTOM] button to begin re-recording the song. 7 Re-recording starts from the beginning of the song and replaces the previously recorded performance with the newly recorded performance. Music Data Recorder (MDR) Recording each part separately You can also record the parts of your performance independently. This function 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. Even Keyboard Percussion and Lead Voice 1 Voices can be recorded separately, though, the Lead Voice 2 Voices will be included in the performance data of the Upper Keyboard. The following instruction is an example: First, record the chords and bass to the song using the Lower and Pedalboard, and then record the melody using the Upper Keyboard. 1 Follow steps 1 - 3 on page 101 to call up the Rec Standby display. 2 Select the parts for recording. Each pressing of a part button switches the status: PLAY, OFF, and REC. NOTE When you record the Keyboard Percussion, make sure that the KEYBOARD PERCUSSION [1] and/or [2] button is set to on. PLAY: Playback the parts that have been recorded. OFF: Recording or playback is not active. REC: Records the part. If you set the Upper part to "REC," the performance on the Upper Keyboard (including Lead Voice 1 Voices) is recorded. Setting Lead to "REC," however, records only the Lead Voice 1 Voices. You cannot set both Upper and Lead to "REC" at the same time; neither can the Lower and Keyboard Percussion parts be recorded at the same time. 102 ELS-01/01C Owner's Manual
