Hi, Here's a new topic related to "muting tracks": Once having muted desired tracks, is there a way to select an internal tone and play (preferably without recording -- just jamming) against the track? Fingers crossed -- this would be helpful in my composing process. Thanks.

You nailed it -- my headphone jack is a one way street. Meanwhile, in desperation today I came up with another solution: I recorded the Casio song data into my Marantz desk top recorder, downloaded that file to my laptop and then into Audacity where I boosted the volume (which was really low for some reason), exported that to my Dell desk top as a wav. file which I can now convert to mp3 and send to my band members! Where there's a will... I checked out your link to the U-Control unit and I'll probably pick that up. Thanks again!

Thanks again for this info. As per your suggestion I attempted to record using the Casio "line out" (using L and R output jacks and converting to a mini jack that I inserted into my "earphone" port (my Dell laptop does not have a separate "audio in" port). I opened Audacity and clicked the record button, then pressed play on the Casio WK 6600. The result was that Audacity began recording using what I believe was its microphone function. It seems to not be recording through the line connection. Is this an Audacity issue (some setting that I neglected so as to create a line as opposed to a mic recording)? Or do I need to set the Casio to transmit data as a line recording?

Thanks for this. So I have proceeded to save a song to the SD card inserted in the WK 6600. I downloaded that song which appeared as a CMS file on my laptop. My intention here is to be able to send the data to a fellow band member who would then be able to play the song on his computer/system/keyboard. Meanwhile, I have been unable to open/play the song on my laptop using Internet Explorer or iTunes. I guess I assumed all the data (including audio/tones) would be transferred via the card. Am I way off base here??

Perfect! Thanks so much. On another topic: can you walk me through my options for downloading recorded songs to my laptop? Please specify what type of cords/cable I would need. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the manual is not specific about how to find/use the Track on/off parameter. I checked E-71 as well as E-31 and could not find the answer. Can you walk me through this? Thanks as always! -R

Ted, I have another question: is there way to mute individual recorded tracks on playback? To be clear: I would like to mute one or several tracks while playing a recorded song to hear a discrete track (or two). Thanks, Rochard

Thanks for your reply -- you nailed it! I cleared it with the "system track" clear. As I forge onward here's another question: I am laying down tracks in the song sequencer and as I do so I want to "practice" playing against the recorded tracks with a new instrument (tone). So for example, I've recorded three tracks (1. hi-hat; 2. snare and bass drum; 3. congas). Now I'd like to practice against those with a rhythm guitar tone. BUT when I change to that guitar tone and press play the snare and bass drum (track 2) gets converted to the guitar tone. FYI -- I am setting the cursor to track 4 but I am not pressing "record". Any thoughts on how to change to a new tone w/o altering tones in the playback?

Ted, Well after a long break for Thanks Giving I'm back at it and encountering new problems! It seems I have NOT been in Easy Record but HAVE been using the song sequencer. So here's a new problem: I have been trying to learn how to delete individual tracks and have found helpful info in the manual. Just for practice, I am trying to delete each one of 4 recorded tracks that I recorded using different internal tones. I followed the steps in the manual and deleted the data on each track -- BUT there is still one piano part that occurs when I press the start button. It plays aurally but does NOT display on the level meter. I have no idea where these data are and would like to delete them so I can start fresh in that Song Area. Can you suggest a remedy? Thanks, Rochard

Ted, Thanks for your reply -- I'll try these suggestions ASAP. Meanwhile can you help with a much simpler problem on the Casio wk 6600? I am struggling with some basic functions vis a vis recording tracks: I'm trying to record a track with the metonome audible and then record subsequent tracks (using different internal tones/instruments) with the metronome and the previous track(s) also audible. Right now I record the first track with the metronome audible but then when I go to record the next track neither the metronome or the the previous track is audible. I'm sure I'm neglecting something very basic here but I can't figure out what it is and the manual is not helpful. Thanks, Rochard
-
Thanks for that very definitive reply! Can you walk me through the "Copy" function(s) of wk 6600. i.e. can I create an 8-bar "song" and then copy it multiple times in a linear sequence?
-
Hi folks -- does wk 6600 (6200) allow you to create a 'loop' of a short phrase (4 or 8 bars) and then write new tracks while the loop is playing?
-
Thanks so much! I'll give it a try -- and be back later with a ton more questions!!
-
I had the same question about my new WK 6600 and your answer was really helpful! But one glitch: step #6 says "press the Tone button with the corresponding note division you want...". But I couldn't find the Tone button and I was not able to up or down arrow to the quantitize line to be able to change the note division. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance...

I just acquired the Casio wk6600 thinking I could easily record tracks. The manual is inadequate and confusing. Can someone walk me through the process of recording 16-bar long "songs" with drums, guitar, bass, piano and horns? I have multiple questions about this but will wait till someone can get me started with the basic recording of multiple tracks using different instruments.
