Lois Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 After recording songs for four hours, lstening to them, good playback.Ready for performance .Then next session, one of them had disappeared.Started over, recorded again.Yesterday only one was left !After hearing it once, it disappeared too !I did not hold down the Recording button until "Delete" appeared.Phoned Costco in Kelowna where I bot it on Nov22 in BC.They suggested "customer Service in Canada".Instead a person from US answered who did not comprehend .So she referred me to this site.If this is a common probem, being unable to retrieve recordings,Costco will not want to sell defective keyboards.My former Roland did not lose recordings...I had hoped that Casio had improved.Sure hope you can help me retrieve the musical information.

Brad Saucier Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Did you save any of your work to a computer using the data manager software? Unfortunately, once something is lost, it cannot be recovered. Your only backup would be a computer copy. If the recordings are lost without your interference, the keyboard is malfunctioning and needs repair or replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- T - Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Lois 038 Disco Soul is an accompaniment rhythm - not a song. If you are seeing that in the display, then your keyboard is set for you to play a new song in real time with Disco Soul as the accompaniment rhythm. It is not set up to play back a previously recorded song. To play back a previously recorded song, press the RECORDER button. A song number will appear in the upper left corner of the display for a few seconds. While it is there, use the 10-key pad to enter the number of the song you want to playback. I think you will need to enter the song number as 01 through 05 or 001 through 005 to get it to register properly. You only have a few seconds to do this, otherwise you have to start the procedure over. Once you have entered the song number, press the START/STOP-PLAYSTOP button to start playback. At this point, do not, do not, do not press the RECORDER button or you will overwrite your song with a blank recording, which, if you are losing songs, may be what you are doing. Keep this in mind - press the RECORDER button and enter a song number and press the RECORDER button AGAIN to record a new song OR press the START/STOP-PLAY/STOP button to playback a previously recorded song. Also, for security/privacy/safety reasons, it is NEVER advisable to post your phone number in ANY forum. I suggest you edit you original post and remove it. Best of luck and wishing you loads of enjoyment with your WK-240. Regards, Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

- T - Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Glad to be of help, Scott ! I just posted this as my closing entry to another thread that Brad and I have been working on: It is nice to have something to contribute for a change. All of these CTK/WK boards have been out for a while, so we don't see much traffice here any more, except for the guys who are experimenting with things their boards really weren't designed for, which I am just not into. Since I sold my XW some time ago, I don't have anything to contribute over there, so it does get a bit lonesome around here at times.
