Recording will begin as soon as you play a chord on the Auto Accompa-
niment section of the keyboard. If you’ve selected a MELODY track to
record with the ACCOMP track, a right-hand note will also start the record-
ing process. The [REC] indicator lights continuously once recording has
started, and the current measure and beat will appear on the LCD display
panel.
Recording can also be started by pressing the ACCOMPANIMENT
CONTROL [START/STOP] button. In this case only the rhythm will begin
without bass and chord accompaniment until you play the first chord on the
Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard.
Play the required chords in the Auto Accompaniment section of the key-
board. If you’ve also selected a MELODY track to be recorded, play the
melody on the right-hand section of the keyboard.
NOTES
• Whenever you record using the SONG MEMORY, any previously
recorded material in the same track will be erased and replaced
by the new material.
• You can also start recording from any specified measure number —
see page 44.
• If the SONG MEMORY becomes full while recording, “Memory Full”
will appear on the LCD display panel and recording will stop. Up to
approximately 4,800 notes can be recorded in all MELODY tracks. Up
to approximately 4,800 chords can be recorded. These figures only
apply, however, if
only chords or notes are recorded. The total is re-
duced when notes and chords are recorded together.
• If you start recording by pressing the [PLAY/STOP] button, nothing will
be recorded until you begin playing on the keyboard.
• If you use a function button during recording the corresponding value
will appear on the LCD display panel while the button is held. The
measure number display will resume a few seconds after the button is
released.
• The SONG MEMORY ACCOMP track can also be recorded using the
Step Record mode (page 50).

also be stopped by pressing the [ENDING] button, [FADE IN/OUT] but-

and “Now Processing” will appear on the LCD display panel while the
PSR-1700/2700 is processing recorded data. “Completed” will appear
briefly when the data has been processed.
NOTES
• When recording is stopped the Song Memory automatically returns to
the measure at which recording was started.
