Re-recording the Multi Track Recording File
The created Multi Track recording data can be re-recorded in the following five ways.
• Replace the whole data: NORMAL REC ........................................................See below
• Mix the recorded data: NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK).......................See below
• Replace a certain range of the data: PUNCH IN/OUT.................................See page 90
• Overdub a certain range of the data: PUNCH IN/OUT (MERGE) ..............See page 90
• Merge the Main and Sub tracks to the Main track: BOUNCE
.................................................................................................See the Owner’s Manual.
NOTE
Re-recording of the data repeatedly will result in deterioration of the sound quality.
NOTICE
The data is automatically saved in the internal HDD, but you want to backup your data before rerecording. Copying is the easiest way to do this. However, since copying within a folder in the HDD is not possible, you need to create a new folder. For details on file management, refer to the
Owner’s Manual.
NORMAL REC / NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK)
You can replace the whole audio data of a track by NORMAL REC or mix the audio data with the previous one by NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK). The NORMAL REC
(PLUS PLAYBACK) method does not add any tracks but simply mixes the new recording to the existing data. After stopping recording, the data will be erased from the stop point.
1
Execute Steps 1–2 in “Editing the Recorded Data (Multi Track
Recording File)” on page 87 to select the recorded data to be
re-recorded.
NOTE
Since you will be overdubbing parts onto this audio, it’s best to keep the first recording simple. For example, you may want to record just a rhythm pattern
(such as by playing back a Style) or a simple bass riff over which you can add other parts.

Use the [F] (TRACK SELECT) button to select the track to be rerecorded.

• Replace the whole data: NORMAL REC
• Mix the recorded data: NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK)
4
If you select “NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK),” play back the recorded audio and practice the part that you want to overdub while the audio is playing. Change the volume settings if necessary.
If you wish to add a keyboard-played Voice from the Tyros4, select the desired
Voice. If you wish to record your singing voice or an external instrument, connect a microphone or instrument and make the appropriate settings. Adjust the Track
Play and Rec Monitor levels here as desired.

Press the [REC] button to enable recording.

6
Press the [PLAY/PAUSE] button to start recording.
Play the keyboard (or sing, etc.) and record your performance.
7
When finished recording, press the [STOP] button.
After stopping recording, the data will be erased from the stop point.
8
To hear your new recording, press the [PLAY/PAUSE] button.
If you’ve made a mistake or you’re not completely satisfied with your performance, press the [EXIT] button to return to the Multi Track Recorder display, then undo the NORMAL REC/NORMAL REC (PLUS PLAYBACK) operation by pressing the [G] (UNDO) button.
NOTE
The playback sound of the other (not rerecorded) track is not recorded.
NOTE
The Audio Recorder/Player automatically reduces the level of the previous track by a certain, slight amount to accommodate the new recording. This is done to minimize possible distortion.
You can use the Normalize effect to maximize the volume of the overall
sound. For details, see page 88
.
PUNCH IN OUT / PUNCH IN OUT (MERGE)
This method of recording can only be used on an existing recording. It allows you to rerecord over a specific part of the already-recorded material. You can replace the original part with the new recording by PUNCH IN/OUT, or keeping the original and mixing it with the new by PUNCH IN/OUT (MERGE). This lets you either correct a mistake in the recording or overdub new parts onto the original recording.
Keep in mind that the parts before and after the Punch In/Out section are not recorded over and remain as the original data—they play back normally to guide you in and out of the recording.
Original Data Re-recorded Data Original Data
NOTE
You can re-record over only one range at one time.
NOTE
The beginning and ending of the recorded data using the Punch In/Out function is faded in/out automatically.
This is done to minimize possible noise at the beginning and ending of the recorded data. We recommend that you specify the beginning and ending points at sections in the data where the volume is low.
