Press [ENTER] to return to the setup menu screen.
For details on video synchronized
recording, see Chapter 7 “Advanced
Recording – Video Synchronized
Recording” on page 61.
You can enjoy piano playback with the video recorded on the DVD
recorder.
Perform the video synchronized recording in advance.
Note:
Be sure to rewind the video cassette
to locate the beginning of the
recording. It may take some time
before piano playback starts if you
start playback halfway through the
video.
Make sure that the OMNI IN setting is set to “AutoDetect”.
Turn down the volume completely on the TV if you
connect the audio output of the DVD recorder to the TV.
Note:
When using the song copied to the
USB flash memory, it may take
some time until the Disklavier
recognizes the information for
synchronization.
Turn down the volume completely on the camcorder if you use the
camcorder only.
See “Setting for Video
Synchronized Recording” on
page 61.
Start playback on the DVD recorder.
Start playback on the camcorder if you use the camcorder only.
Note:
When searching for songs for video
synchronized playback from a USB
flash memory, you can search from
a maximum of 150 songs per USB
flash memory. It is therefore
recommended that you copy songs
for video synchronized playback
onto the internal memory. When
saving onto a USB flash memory, it
is recommended that you do not
exceed a total of 150 saved songs
per memory.
The Disklavier automatically searches and selects the song paired
with the video, and then starts playback as well.
If the piano playing is not synchronized with the video
Adjust the offset time for synchronization. See Chapter 10 “Enhancing the
Disklavier by Hooking Up Other Devices – Setting the Disklavier for Audio
Data Reception/Transmission” on page 106.
Note:
You cannot operate the Disklavier
using the control unit or remote
control during video synchronized
playback. If you want to stop
playback of the song, stop playback
on the DVD recorder (or the
camcorder).
If noises (synchronized signal) are heard during playback
Turn down the signal level and re-record. See Chapter 10 “Enhancing the
Disklavier by Hooking Up Other Devices – Setting the Disklavier for Audio
Data Reception/Transmission” on page 106.
