NOTES REVOICE TRACK · ALL REVOICE settings are reset to their default values if you changes styles while the REVOICE function is OFF. If you want to keep a re-voiced setup so that it can be easily recalled later, store it in the PSR-4500E REGISTRATION MEMORY, described on page 31. · As long as you don't change styles while the REVOICE function is OFF, the re-voiced settings are maintained and can be recalled at any time simply by turning the REVOICE function ON. · If you change styles while the REVOICE function is engaged, the revoiced settings will be maintained. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 29 One Touch Setting Each PSR-4500E accompaniment style has a suitable preset voice and other settings that can be instantly recalled by pressing the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button in the VOICE control section.

Each PAGE MEMORY holds a different song. q 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. CAUTION · Turning the PSR-4500E power OFF during recording or recordready mode can result in a loss of recording data. Song Memory The PSR-4500E 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-4500E 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).
