Audio recorder and pad audio play

The audio recorder function lets you make multi-track recordings of your perfor-
mance on the KROSS, and the pad audio play function makes it easy to use the
pads to play back audio songs that you recorded. (See "Audio recorder" of the
Operation Guide)
Note: The recorded songs and settings are saved on an SD card. Insert an SD card
that was formatted by the KROSS.
Using the audio recorder to record an audio song
As an example, we'll explain the procedure for recording with a mic.
1.
Select a mic program
It's easy and convenient to record from a mic if you use a program whose
input and effect settings are designed for use with a mic.
2.
Connect your mic
In the REALTIME CONTROLS section, use the SELECT button to select
AUDIO IN 1; then turn off the SWITCH (ON/OFF) button, and turn the VOL-
UME knob all the way to the left to lower the volume. Then connect a dynamic
mic to the rear panel mic input (MIC IN) jack.
You must turn off the SWITCH (ON/OFF) button and use the VOLUME knob to
minimize the volume before you connect a mic or other device. If you fail to observe
this precaution, your speaker system might be damaged.
3.
Enable the mic input
After you've connected the mic, once again press the REALTIME CON-
TROLS section SWITCH (ON/OFF) button to turn it on (lit); the mic is
enabled.
4.
Adjust the volume of the mic input
Adjust the VOLUME knob to an appropriate volume; then while playing
the keyboard or playing back the audio recorder, vocalize into the mic and
use the SELECT button to select REALTIME CONTROLS section
AUDIO IN 1, and use the KNOB1 (GAIN) knob to adjust the volume bal-
ance.

Use the pads to play back audio songs
The pad that you recorded in step 1 (pad 1 in this example) is lit; in this
state when you press pad 1, the assigned audio song plays (the pad illumi-
nation becomes brighter). When you press pad 1 once again, the playback
is paused.
Note: If you start playback from a different pad while an audio song is playing,
the previously-playing audio song stops. You can't play back multiple audio
songs simultaneously.

Recording on the MIDI sequencer

The KROSS provides recording functionality that lets you create phrases and
songs.The MIDI sequencer records your performance as MIDI data. After recording,
you can edit your performance and the control data, and change the instrument that is
played. (See "Sequencer" of the Operation Guide)

Recording your performance as MIDI

Save the song that you created

Save the song that you created on the SD card.
Songs cannot be saved in internal memory.
When you turn off the power, data in internal memory is lost.
Use an SD card that was formatted by the KROSS. For details on format-
ting, see the operation guide.
Never remove the SD card while "Scanning Media" is displayed when
the SD card is inserted.
About the saved data
Song data is saved as a .SNG file. This data includes performance data
and sound (program) numbers. It does not include the program
sound data itself. (SNG: SoNG)
Sound data is saved as a .PCG file. To ensure that the sounds are repro-
duced correctly during playback, we recommend that you save the
.PCG file together with the .SNG file.
