Recording to RIGHT/LEFT
This lets you record the right and left parts separately. Since you can record the left part while play-
ing back the right, this is useful for recording both parts of a duet.
1. Make all the initial settings.
Same as step 1 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 29.
2. Select a song to record.
Press the [SONG SELECT] button to light “USER” indicator on, then press the
[–/NO][+/YES] buttons to select a song for recording.
CAUTION
To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s):
If the song contains data, the part indicator lights up green when you select a song.
Note that recording new data on this part will erase the existing data.
3. Engage Record Ready mode.
Press the [REC] button and press the [RIGHT]/[LEFT] button to engage Record
Ready mode. Recording does not actually start yet.
The amount of memory available for recording will be shown on the LED dis-
play in approximate kilobytes. The SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will flash at
the current METRONOME tempo setting.
Record Ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC]
button again.
4. Start and stop recording.
Same as step 3-5 in “Recording a performance quickly” on page 30.
NOTE
Part button indications
Off: Contains no data
On (green): Contains data
On (red): Part is enabled for
recording
NOTE
The amount of memory avail-
able for recording:
This value in kilobytes (a unit
used of measurement for data)
indicates how much space
remains available for recording on
the Clavinova. You can record up
to a maximum of about 11,000
notes on the CLP-240/230
depending on pedal usage and
other factors.
NOTE
If the metronome was on when
you started recording, you’ll be
able to keep time with the metro-
nome while recording, but the
metronome sound will not be
recorded.
NOTE
If you want to change the tempo,
time signature, reverb type, or
effect type when rerecording a
part or when recording to another
part, do so after entering Record
Ready mode.
NOTE
If you don’t want to hear the previ-
ously recorded part while you
record (for example, when you
want to record a song different
from what you recorded on the
previous part), press the play-
back part button before pressing
the [REC] button so that its indi-
cator is turned off.
NOTE
For more information on record-
ing, see page 33.
