Song Recording

The DGX-202 features powerful and easy-to-use song recording features that let you record

your keyboard performances — using up to six independent tracks (including one track for

accompaniment) — for creating your own complete, fully orchestrated compositions. You can

record and save up to ﬁve User songs.

Song recording on the DGX-202 is similar to using a tape recorder; whatever you

play on the keyboard is recorded in real time as you play it. Also, when you

record subsequent parts to other tracks, you can hear the previously recorded parts

as you record new ones.

Data that can be recorded to the normal (melody) tracks:

• Note on/off • Velocity • Voice Number • Volume

• Pan • Tempo*, Time Signature* (if there is no such data in the Chord track)

• Sustain on/off • Reverb Type* • Chorus Type* • DSP Type*

• Harmony Type, on/off • Reverb Send Level • Chorus Send Level • DSP Send Level

Data that can be recorded to the Chord track:

• Chord changes and timing • Style number*

• Style Volume* • Changing sections (Intro, Main A/B, etc.)

• Tempo, Time Signature* • Reverb Type*

• Chorus Type* • DSP Type*

Make all desired DGX-202 settings.

Before you actually start recording, you’ll need to make various settings for

the song — such as selecting a style, setting the Tempo, and selecting a

voice. (See pages 35, 41, and 23.)

If desired, also make other settings. Refer to the list above for settings that

can be recorded to a song.

Song Memory Capacity

• Maximum number of notes :

approximately 10,000 (when only

“melody” tracks are recorded)

• Maximum number of chords :

approximately 5,500 (when only

the chord track is recorded)

Recording a User Song

* These settings can only be recorded once at the beginning of a song; other

settings can be changed in the middle of a song.

Using the Metronome

You can use the Metronome instead of a style if desired. This allows you to keep your performance “in time,” even

when recording without style. To do this, press the [METRONOME] button before recording in step #4 below.

After the song is completely recorded, simply play back the song with the Metronome turned off. (See page 20.)
