Musette Detune
You probably know that an accordion’s 8’ Treble register may
consist of 2 or even 3 reeds that are usually tuned apart to provide
a richer sound (accordionists call it the “musette effect”).
One reed is tuned slightly above, the other slightly below the
correct pitch, and the third (if available) is tuned “properly.”
It is normally difficult to tune the reeds, and this is not something
that a performer would do on their own. However, the FR-4x makes
it easy to adjust the reed tuning.
NOTE
This function is only available for the Accordion section and
if an accordion sound that contains at least the following
footages is selected:
