Record Functions

The PSR-410 RECORDING section controls two recording functions:

●

The SONG MEMORY:

Record complete songs including an accompaniment track and melody track. Each PAGE

MEMORY holds a different song.

●

 MULTI PADS:

Record short chord, melody, or rhythm sequences that can be played back anytime by simply

pressing a button. Each PAGE MEMORY holds different MULTI PAD data.

Operation of both functions is essentially the same, so once you're familiar with the basic procedure,

recording songs or multi-pad phrases should be easy. We'll start with the SONG MEMORY.

Song Memory

The PSR-410 SONG MEMORY allows you to record and play back complete songs including chord sequences

created using the Auto Accompaniment feature and a melody line you play on the keyboard. The SONG MEMORY

has one ACCOMP track and one MELODY track.

Each PAGE MEMORY holds a different song, so the PSR-410 can retain up to 4 complete songs in memory, and

these can be selected and played back simply by selecting the appropriate PAGE MEMORY.

NOTES

• Material recorded using the SONG MEMORY is retained in memory

even when the POWER switch is turned OFF if batteries are present

or an AC adaptor is connected (see “PAGE MEMORY” on page 41 for

more details).
