Using Sets
FR-4x recreates the sounds of various accordion instruments and
can even generate orchestral sounds (like trumpet, flute, etc.),
organ and drum sounds.
There are 100 Set memories and some of them already contain
useful settings right out of the box. But you can replace them with
your own settings.
And if 100 Sets are not enough, you can archive and load new sets
using an optional USB flash drive
&
“Saving a Set or User Program to a USB Flash Drive
(Export)” (p. 94)
&
“Importing a Set or User Program from a USB Flash Drive
(Import)” (p. 94)
The FR-4x has an extra Set memory called Working Area (WA).

“Working with User Programs” (p. 39)
What is a set?
Each set is a type of accordion.
When you change a set you change your accordion into another
accordion.
The concept of a set includes the settings for the orchestra
sound/organ sound/drum sound, allowing you to perform using
these sounds as well.
The FR-4x comes with different accordions (sets) already
programmed.
Design your own accordion
Moreover you can change many parameters designing your
favorite accordion and save them into a Set.
&
“How to Save a Set” (p. 33)
To edit the accordion parameter, see “Accordion parameters”
(p. 45).

How to Save a Set
The FR-4x has a memory that holds the data of all Sets, User
Program, Registers, Global settings, etc. You can change whatever
you need to change without worrying about saving your changes
until you are sure that you want to keep them.
Be aware, however, that all unsaved changes are lost when you
switch off the FR-4x or when it is turned off by the “Auto Off”
function (p. 74.)
So be sure to save everything you want to keep at regular intervals.
1. Select all settings you would like to use for the new
own accordion.
You can edit settings such as sound, reverb, and chorus.
