Abstract
An automatic performance recording apparatus for storing performance data for an automatic performance in a performance data memory means such as a RAM is disclosed. In order to allow easy and appropriate recording and correction of performance data, according to this invention, a specific recording mode for starting recording in synchronism with generation of first key-on data indicating generation of a musical tone is set. The specific recording modes include a synchronous recording mode in which a recording operation of performance data is suspended in an operation stop state, and is started simultaneously with generation of the key-on data, a re-recording mode in which a recording operation of performance data is suspended in the operation stop state, and is restarted from the beginning of a previously recorded section simultaneously with generation of the key-on data, and a running recording mode in which a recording operation of performance data is suspended in a playback state, and is started simultaneously with generation of the key-on data.
