Be aware that the system you select here is only used when
you activate the FR-1’s Free Bass mode. It is of no conse-
quence for the “regular” Bass mode. See the illustration on
page 4 for the note assignments.
Note:
This parameter is not reset when you load the factory defaults
(see the owner’s manual).
Note:
The FR-1 is supplied with several reference caps designed to
help you locate the bass buttons without looking at them. See also
the owner’s manual.
(The following functions have changed.)
This parameter’s behavior has changed as follows:
•In Bass & Chord mode, it sets the level of the ORCHESTRA
CHORD sound for a better balance with the other available
sections (same as in the previous version).
•In Free Bass mode, it sets the level of the ORCHESTRA FREE
BASS sound (new functionality).
The settings you can select with the registers are:
The strength/speed with which the bellows is pressed or
pulled influences the sound – which corresponds to an
acoustic accordion’s response. This effect can be translated
into a MIDI message most external instruments under-
stand.
If you want to use the bellows for expressive purposes,
switch this parameter on (register
[2]
). If you don’t (because
the external instrument is too sensitive and therefore
changes its volume too often), switch it off (register
[1]
).
The default setting (register
[3]
) has almost the same effect
as “on”, except that bellows expression messages are only
transmitted on MIDI channels 1 and 4. This is the recom-
mended setting when you use the FR-1 to control an
arranger module.
