One song—sixteen MIDI channels
...................................................................................
On the Tyros2, a single song can contain separate data for up to sixteen MIDI channels. When recording
your own performance, you’ll need to assign each part you play to a separate MIDI channel.
With Quick Recording (on the previous page), the Tyros2 takes care of this chore for you—letting you
record a song without having to worry about which part goes to which channel. However, you’ll increase
your understanding of the recording process and gain greater flexibility and control by reading through
the sections below—which cover recording rules and characteristics, and show you how to use Multi
Recording as well as re-record an existing Quick Recording song.

channels and set channel/part assignments via Multi Recording.

Assign the part to the
