When recording an L/R song, the left- and right-hand parts can be
recorded separately. Either part can be recorded first, and the pedals can
be recorded with the first part.
While you record the second part, the first part will play back for
monitoring.
If the left-hand or right-hand part is difficult to play at normal speed, the first
part can be recorded at a slow tempo, and then the tempo changed
afterwards to record the second part at the normal song speed.
This section describes how to record the left-hand part first then the
right-hand part second.
To select a medium and album, see
Chapter 3 “Basic Song Playback –
Selecting Medium and Their
Contents” on page 21.
Select a destination medium and album.
In the case you want to title your
new song before recording, see
Chapter 6 “Basic Recording –
Titling a Song at the Start of
Recording” on page 50, to rename
the title after recording, see Chapter
8 “Media Management – Renaming
a Song” on page 75.
Press [RECORD].
Press [FUNC.] in the recording standby screen.
The part selection screen appears.
If you want to record your L/R song
using the metronome, see Chapter 7
“Advanced Recording – Recording
with the Internal Metronome” on
page 52.
Make sure that the left-hand part is set to be recorded
(“L=REC”), then press [PLAY].
This Disklavier is now ready for you to play the left-hand part.
Start playing your song.
Recording will start as soon as you touch a key.
Press [STOP] when you finish playing your song.
The L/R song with the left-hand part recorded is saved onto the
selected album.
Next, record the right-hand part overwriting the left-hand part that
you have just recorded.
