setting is 2.

slots, enabling you to record and save up to 3 of your own user songs.

Each of the user songs can have up to 3 tracks:

• Track 1 is used for recording an accompaniment track only.

• Track 2 and Track 3 can be used for recording melodies.

In record mode, you can record only one melody track at a time. You can record the

accompaniment track by itself, or at the same time as one of the melody tracks.

buttons to change the user song slot.

Ready page. Once you have entered this page, the Record icon below will appear along with

the 3 track icons.

Each track icon can have one of the following record statuses:

• If the track icon is flashing, this means the track is ready to record. If a recording

already exists on this track, it will be overwritten.

• If the track icon is on, this means the track will playback while recording, however it

will not be recorded to.

• If the track icon is off, this means the track will be muted during recording, and it will

not be recorded to.

To select which tracks that you would like to record to, Press the Track 1, Track 2, or Track 3

buttons to change their status accordingly. After you have selected which tracks you would

like to record to, start playing the keyboard, or press the Start/Stop button to begin the

recording.

Once you have finished recording, press the Record button to end the recording. The

recording will start to play immediately after you have finished recording. To stop the

playback, press the Start/Stop button.

If you would like to record to a different track of the song, press the record button twice to re-

enter the Record Ready page, and select the new track accordingly.

TIP: While you can exit and return to the record mode to change things like your Voice and

Style settings, it is helpful to have these set before entering record mode.

TIP: If you plan on using the Auto Chord or Full Range Chord features in record mode, make

sure that you enable it after entering record mode.

TIP: If the internal recording memory is full, the recording will stop and store the song.

"Rec_Full" will be shown on the display.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

The piano is turned on, but no sound is

produced when the keys are played.

Make sure the volume is set to an

appropriate level. Check that headphones

are not connected to the Phones jack.

Using a mobile phone produces noise in the

piano sound.

Using a mobile phone in close proximity to

the piano may produce interference. To

prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or

use it far away from the piano.

The wrong notes sound when the keys are

played.

Make sure the Tune setting is set to 0.

Press and hold the + and – buttons while

powering on Virtue to revert the settings

back to factory defaults.

After connecting with the computer, the

piano is not recognized.

Make sure the USB cable is connected

properly, or try to connect it to a different

USB port on your computer.

Make sure the appropriate USB driver is

selected for MIDI input. Depending on your

computer, it may appear as USB Audio

Device, USB Composite Device, etc.)
