Recording a Song
You can record your song onto Memory Disks or
a floppy disk.
A very basic description of the song recording
procedure is described below.
1
Specify a disk.
Note: If you are recording to a floppy disk,
make sure that the disks's erasure
protection tab is set to "unprotected."
☛ Unformatted disks must be formatted before
use with the Disklavier. See "Formatting
Disks" on page 17.
2
Press [REC].
The REC indicator lights, the
PLAY/PAUSE indicator flashes, and the
following display appears.
If the disk already contains songs, a new
song number will be created. For example,
if the last song to be recorded was No. 6,
the new recording will be song No. 7.
☛ You can title your new song either now or
after recording. See "Song Titling and Title
Editing" on page 22.
☛ If you want to record a song using the
metronome, see "Recording with the
Metronome" on page 24.
3
Press [PLAY/PAUSE].
The PLAY/PAUSE indicator stops flashing,
and the following display appears.
The Disklavier is now ready for you to
play.
4
Start playing your song and
recording will begin.
Recording will start as soon as you touch a
key or press a pedal.
5
When you finish playing your
song, press [STOP].
The following displays appear.
Note: Do not attempt to eject or insert disks
while the above messages are
displayed.
Your new song is saved to disk.
Remaining Disk Space
If the [REC] button is pressed and the amount of
free disk space is less than 10%, the characters
"DSK" flash on the display, as shown below. If
your next recording is quite long, it may be better
to use a new disk. If you run out of disk space
while recording, your song data will not be
recorded.
During recording, the remaining disk space is
displayed as a percentage.
The percentage will decrease as more data is
recorded.
