Recording and playing back your performance

The HT-70 provides a recorder that can record and play back your key-
board performance as easily as when using a tape recorder.
There are two recording parts. You can use these to record separate
songs, or use them to separately record the right- and left-hand parts of
the same song and then play back both parts simultaneously.

Recording your performance

When you complete a recording or editing session, please wait for
the HT-70 to finish writing the new data to nonvolatile memory
before turning the power off. Turning the power off while writing is
in progress may result in loss or corruption of recorded songs, data,
and settings.
❏ Quick Recording (Recording a New Song)
The onboard recorder is very easy to use. Let's start by making a "quick
recording."
1. Turn the sound selector to select the sound to be recorded.
2. Press [●] and [ ] at the same time.
[●] switch lights up, and [PART 1] and [PART 2] start flashing.
3. A currently empty user song number appears, flashing, on the multid-
isplay.
If there are no more free song numbers available, the already used
number "U01" appears, solid, in the display.
4. If you wish to save the recording to a different song number, press
[▲] or [▼] as necessary. You may choose any number from U01 to
U99.
Song numbers that are currently empty will appear flashing on
the multidisplay. Numbers that are already in use will appear
solid.
If you select a song number that is already in use, the new
recording will overwrite the existing recorded song.
5. To start recording, hit a key on the keyboard or else press [
You can also start recording by sending a MIDI message to the
☞
selected MIDI channel ( p.20).
If you want to record in time with the metronome, hold down
[ ] (so that it lights up) and press [
out a two-measure pick-up and then automatically start record-
ing. (For information about how to set the time signature,
tempo, and other metronome features, see "Changing the Met-
ronome Settings" on page 12.)
6. To end the recording, press [■], [
The [PART 1] switch goes dark, and [PART 2] lights up solid.
When you end the recording, the HT-70 automatically writes the new
data into nonvolatile song memory. During this time, the multidis-
play will indicate that writing is in progress.
To Add Performance Data to Song Recorded by Quick
Recording
If you have changed the song selection after making your quick
recording, you must first change the selection back again before
you can add to the recording. To change back to the song, carry out
steps 1 to 4 under "To Add Performance Data to a Recorded Song,"
below.
1. Press [●].
The [●] switch lights up.

When you record onto a previously-recorded part, the previous data will
be erased and overwritten by the newly-recorded performance. Before
you continue, make sure that you don't mind losing the previously-
recorded performance.
You can continue to save recorded performances until the memory
becomes full.
4. To start recording, hit a key on the keyboard or else press [
5. To end the recording, press [■], [
The [PART 1] switch lights up solid, and the HT-70 automatically
writes the recorded data into nonvolatile song memory. During write
processing, the multidisplay will indicate that writing is in progress.
❏ Recording a Performance
To Create and Record to a New Song
You can start a quick recording by pressing [●] and [
time (see page 15 "❏ Quick Recording (Recording a New Song)" ).
If no user songs are currently in memory, you can also start quick record-
ing by pressing [●] by itself.
An "E07" will appear on the multidisplay if user song memory
becomes full. If you wish to save more recorded data, you must first
delete one or more existing user songs (☞p.16).
To Record to an Existing Song
The onboard recorder holds two parts for each song.
When you make a quick recording without pressing either the [PART 1]
or the [PART 2] switch, the recording automatically records to Part 2.
This means that you can later record additional performance data into
Part 1 for that song.
In general, you may have numerous user songs where only one part is
recorded. You are always free to record more data into the empty parts of
these songs.
You may also have numerous two-part songs recorded. Again, you are
free to over-record either part at any time, or to delete either part
(☞p.16) and then record it again later.
The status of each part is indicated by the indicator lamp in the corre-
sponding PART switch, as follows.
[PART 1] / [PART 2] Switch Status of Part
Dark The part is empty or muted.
This part is not ready to record.
Lit solid The part contains recorded data.
This part is not ready to record.
Flashing This part is ready to record.
