Thanks for the lesson bro'! You are good teacher, I actually was able to understand this for the first time. I usually follow some long explanations but grasp nothing. This video is shot and straight to the point.
Ive had this keyboard for years but always recorded the tracks for my different instruments on the computer. This was helpful to learn what it can do within the keyboard itself
HUGE THUMBS UP!! Just bought 2nd hand YPG 235 in excellent condition for $70 from offer up. Looked for months. This easy recording is why I was patient ..THANK YOU!!!!!!
Finally!! I've had a 235 for a few years now and had been searching for video help. Thanks millions!! One thing I still have trouble with is saving voice to the memory banks. How about a video showing how to do that? Your other vids have helped tremendously!!
I was so frustrated! I just got one and could not figure it out. I bought it used so it didn't come with a manual or anything. Thank you so much for the help! You made it super easy to follow with clear direction and demonstration! ❤
:)...thanks so much...I've had this keyboard for about 5 years...I was just happy to figure out the voices...But, you've shown me how versatile this baby is...It's a great music tool! Way better than my drums! :) Health and freedom to you and yours!
Can’t thank u enough for this video. I’ve come back to it many times. Recording isn’t something I do often but when I do I’m thankful you’re in my saved videos 😎👍! Much appreciated
great job... some tips... move the camera out further so you capture the whole area so you dont have to move the camera to show things. In post production, you can zoom in using software. Also, maybe add in how to lay down a whole song using the 5 tracks to show how you set a beat, add the different music and keep it timed correctly.
I have been searching for a video like this for a long time and finally found it. Thanks for all the help! I probably would still be trying to press random buttons if I didn't come across this one. :D
Thanks for doing these, very helpful. However cannot seem to get a drum loop to record, all of the other track recordings work exactly as described in your video. I setup acmp for the desired drum loop, select song, press "rec - a" keys and it says rec, the acmp icon is flashing. then I hit start, loop plays, the record process appears to start, it even says at the end "writing" but when it's done there is no icon retained indicating it saved it. playback has no sound. Any thoughts are appreciated.
I can't find the record button. I don't know what type of Yamaha it is, the only thing that could indicate it is YTP-200 that is written in the corner of the keyboard. The only buttons I see are: Stand by/On, Master Volume, Lesson Part LR, Song A-H repeat ACMP On/Off, Rew Intro/Ending, Ft Main/Auto Fill, Tempo/Tap, Listen and Learn, Timing, Waiting Chord Dict., Sync Start, Pause, Start/Stop, Song, Style, Voice, Function, Portable Grand, Sound effect Kira Reverb On/Off, 1234567890-+, Demo and Metronome On/Off. There is no record button. Help?
Great tips bro! This is an awesome keyboard with realistic sounds. I've recorded all my songs s\using this, an electric guitar and a bass. I regret selling it a while ago but ordered another one online, ( that's currently out of stock in most places). Keep on rockin bro!
go from the headphone out into the mic jack on your computer,,and then record on what ever software you may be using,,make sure all your levels are down then bring them up in the software
i have tried to press record and track 1 while following the instruction and when I do, it doesn't say record. I have tried everything from following this exactly the way you showed it. from trying every combo of keys I could think of. Is there any reason this may happen?
Can I use my laptop and the usb connector to input a REALLY GOOD HAMMOND B3 SOUND. I cant quite get the right sound on this. Or will my amp help create that sound better
Hi my name is Tasha. I'm not sure if you are afraid of or hate black people or not. But if I could see you right now I'd give you a big ole hug and say thank you so much!!!!!!! This video helped me sooooooooooo much!!!!! I have had this keyboard for over a year. I'm always too busy to put the time in and learn how to work it. I've spent hours trying but I always give up cuz it takes too long. I Tried reading the manual but it's just too much! But you my friend have just taught me how to record my own materials on here! I've been trying to figure out how to make and record beats forever. Thanks to you I am on my way! I appreciate your service to not just me but people all over the world. You are what TH-cam is all about. Btw I did hit that like and subscribe button. How could I not? It's the least I can do!
Do you happen to know how to input a good hammond b3 sound into the keyboard. One person says you need a computer and usb hookup. Another says usb computer and "tsr" I think it's called.
Go to functions, scroll through until you find Split Point. Put that number all the way to zero. Now nothing can trigger the bass line to start playing!
@@Films128thanks allot for answering. I think there is misunderstood. I playing in a band and we have already bass player,so I need to make bass line in styles accompaniment disable.should I do it in same way??
Let's say you want to record drums riff at the beginning of the song, to then continue with the accompaniment recording , can this be done?, been trying and still can't figure out
Coincidentally (like VERY), I just recorded a video on this topic that will post soon! But here's the quick version- One option is to play ONLY on the top half of the keyboard, then cue in the accomp when ready by hitting the lower chord notes. Another option is to go under functions, to settings, and put the split point to zero, allowing you to play on the full keyboard without triggering the accomp. sounds. You could potentially play the whole song with just the drum rhythm, and no accomp sounds. Then, because your tempo is basically locked, you could re-record the drum style, waiting for the right moment to cue in the accomp sounds. Hope this helps a little. I know it seems like it's sort of a "all or none" situation with this keyboard, and it really is. My methods are really just "work-arounds."
@@Films128 thanks a lot for the advice, I have the YPG 535 basically it's the same as the 235, it's a simple kboard but the sound is real good, specially if you know how to operate all those setting, I will try those instructions thanks for your work
You show a lot of "layered" stuff.....but what about the basics of recording a set of chords and have them loop?? On your other video I saw a LOT of people asking how to loop (repeat) without the frustrating "lead in " beats. We can silence the beats but the time still lags in between repeats. How can we loop cleanly (repeat recorded chording in a loop)
How do you make a recording with just the drumbeat. Every time that I try to record with just a simple drumbeat, it completely changes my bass notes to some random poppy sound with a completely different beat.
Thanks! is there any way to have the recording loop/repeat without the intro of 2 measures of the metronome? I will record without the metronome but when I play it back in a loop, it will give 2 measure break in between each repeat...
go from the headphone out into the mic jack on your computer,,and then record on what ever software you may be using,,make sure all your levels are down then bring them up in the software
hello, i need to record only the drums of the style, with no accomaniamient ( in one track) so in the other tracks y would be able to record what i want using the drums y choose from the style menu. how can i do that? thank you
Sadly, the keyboard won't let that happen. It insists on having that accomp sound when recording, not just the drums by themselves. The workaround is to record the drums and anything on track one (even if you just record over it on the next run), without hitting any of the lower keys. Then once that's in recorded and done, you'll have the plain drums all set, and now you can record as normal. Hope that makes sense.
If you are still answering questions,can you please tell me how to record two different instruments in one song. I have had this keyboard for 2 years and I still have no clue how
can u add styles to this yamaha keyboard ? because i searched on the whole web and on youtube that it need a usb but theres no usb in the keyboard is there any other and plz if there is make a turorial on how to add style thank u
in this video here, I explain how to send midi files to the keyboard. So if you found a style as a midi, you could send that over. th-cam.com/video/rGWBsBZB6Qg/w-d-xo.html
I was recording my songs and it would no longer record. I would try to push the 'record' button it would be greyed out on the screen as if I have disabled the function. Can you please help?? 😣
I know how to record one track on my keyboard but it won't let me play both the melody and my chords at the same time. I have a song I've composed and just need to simply record the song into my keyboard. Can you please help? Thanks!
I haven't found a way to do that yet. I've connected via USB to my computer and told Noteworthy Composer to record. But every note displays equal length. As in, it does bring in the notes as the keyboard plays and Noteworthy records, but every note will be a quarter note, which creates nothing but a huge mess.
Also , how can I edit part of a recording ...like say I want to change something on a track on say bar 50 for example but not re-record the whole track . Thanks in advance for your help
Thanks! Now I can do the saddest thing on piano ever!
Play a duet alone.
It's the best tutorial video on how to record a song on keyboard with multiple tracks! You left nothing behind. Thank you!

For a non professional teacher you did a great job, I understood every lesson, 🙏 thanks
Thank you for putting this video together. I couldn't find the YES and NO button and it was driving me nuts.

Thank you. It was unclear with other tutorials and I finally know how to do it on my PSR-EW310.
Thanks! I've been looking for this information! Great presentation and easy to understand!
Excellent tutorial! This gives me hope to learn how to play this thing and play more than just solo tracks.

Great video!! Now my son and I can play Color my world using piano AND play the flute part.
Thanks, I've just used this to set up some spooky sounds and music for Trick-or-Treaters
This is THE video I have been looking for
THANK YOU!!!! This video literally saved my life. Time to make some funky rap beats
Your video is a tremendous help. Thank you!
Wow... finally a tutorial on how to record! Thank you so much :)

Thank you!! How would I save the song??
Hello, tell me please. Is it possible to transfer a song recorded on Yamaha dgx 220 to a computer?🤔
I was hoping you could record on of the provided rhythm tracks onto one of the 5 tracks for overdubbing but it seems you like you cannot.
i have tried to press record and track 1 while following the instruction and when I do, it doesn't say record. I have tried everything from following this exactly the way you showed it. from trying every combo of keys I could think of. Is there any reason this may happen?
this is a great video but is there any way to make it repeat?
Thanks, but do you know how to clear all recordings because I’m trying to record and it says.” Mem full “
i am working on a submition for a composition contest thank you👌

Very helpful video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Sorry if I'm late, but I need help on how to save a song after recording
Thanks! is there any way to have the recording loop/repeat without the intro of 2 measures of the metronome? I will record without the metronome but when I play it back in a loop, it will give 2 measure break in between each repeat...
I don't think so. I don't think there's any way to loop things.
Ok great but how do I get it off the piano and onto my computer
go from the headphone out into the mic jack on your computer,,and then record on what ever software you may be using,,make sure all your levels are down then bring them up in the software
Thanks bro I like it!
thank you. you were very helpful. much appreciated.
Excellent instruction. ...just curious; are those weighted keys?
yes the keys are weighted
xD Sticky notes, cool video once again, keep it up.
how do we playback the whole track.?
AKIMA TERU you press start
Thank you, I can actually start creating my new song now :D
I hope u see this but can I make it repeat and repeat without stopping?

do you know if you can loop it in time with the previous recording or do you have to make extra long tracks?
for reference : i record something it ends then i have to press start again and it doesnt sync well
Great tutorial! Thanx man!
If you are still answering questions,can you please tell me how to record two different instruments in one song. I have had this keyboard for 2 years and I still have no clue how
Nvm figured it out
how do you clear the song memory?
Press A and 1 at the same time. Screen will confirm you're trying to clear that user file. Press yes over on the number pad.
Make sure you hold it
Is there anyway to loop the track??
thank you. I needed this
is there a way to make it so a track like (1) for example can repeat over and over, until the song ends?
Not with this keyboard
oh well... I guess I will have to repeat a rhythm over and over, which can be hard.@@Films128
When I would try to clear my users they won’t clear and when I would press all of them at the same time it would start to record again
