Recording Your Performance; Track Structure Of A Song; Quick Recording - Yamaha PSR-I300 Owner's Manual

Recording Your Performance

You can record up to five of your performances as User Songs (User 1–5: Song num-
bers 165–169). The recorded User Songs can be played back on the instrument. The
recorded User Song can be played back in the same way as the preset Songs.

Track Structure of a Song

You can record your performance to the following two
tracks of a User Song individually or simultaneously.
 Track 1:
Your melody performance is recorded to this track.
 Track 2:
Your melody performance, or Style playback (Chord
changes and Section changes), is recorded to this
track.
 Recording Data Capacity:
A total of approximately 10,000 notes can be
recorded to the five User Songs.

Quick Recording

The operation is convenient for recording a new
Song without having to specify a track.
1
Make the desired settings such as Voice
and Style settings.
If you want to record only the melody perfor-
mance, turn ACMP off (page 25). If you want to
record Style playback or Rhythm playback as well
as melody performance, turn ACMP on (page 25).
2
Press the [REC] button to enter the
Record Ready mode.
This operation selects the lowest-numbered unre-
corded User Song ("User 1"–"User 5") as the
recording target, if a User Song has not been speci-
fied in advance or if Record Ready mode has been
entered from the Style mode. If you want to select
another Song, use the [+/YES] and [-/NO] buttons.

To exit from the Record mode, press the [REC]
button again to stop the display from flashing.
NOTICE
• If all User Songs contain recorded data, "User 1 (Song
Number 165)" will automatically be selected. In this
case, since you will record over and erase any previ-
ous data in "User 1, " we recommend that you save
your important data to a computer (see page 53).
NOTE
• ACMP cannot be turned on or off in this status while you
can select another Style in this status by using the
[STYLE/RIYAZ] and Number buttons.

Play the keyboard to start recording.
If ACMP is turned on, you can independently
record just the rhythm sound of Style playback by
pressing the [START/STOP] button, and then
changing the Section (page 26).

Press the [START/STOP] button to stop

When using a Style, you can stop recording also
by pressing the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button, and
then waiting until playback ends.
NOTICE
• After Recording stops, a "Writing!" message is shown
on the display for a while. Never attempt to turn the
power off while this is shown in the display. Doing so
can damage the internal memory and result in a loss
of data.
