You can only select registers that light yellow.
6. Now select the internal Set memory to
which you want to load the selected “User
Set” file: press register [1], [2] or [3] that
lights yellow.
Register [4] is not available here, because there are
only three User Set memories.
All registers go dark to confirm that the selected User
Set was imported.
7. Press the [SET] register again to exit Func-
tion mode.
NOTE
If one of the treble registers flashes red, the FR-18 diatonic
has noticed an error:
• Missing USB memory
• Load error
NOTE
See “Recovering the factory User Set data” on p. 51 to load
the original factory Sets.
Importing Tablature sets
1. Connect an optional USB memory to the
FR-18 diatonic’s USB MEMORY port.
2. Press and hold the [SET] register (it flashes
slowly).
The treble keyboard doesn’t play.
3. Press button “37” on the treble keyboard to
select the “Import Tablatures” parameter.
See page 42 for the location of that button.
IMPORTANT REMARK: Each tablature file contains
12 tablature settings. Loading one of them will over-
write the existing tablatures. You cannot select just a
single setting from a Tablature Set file.
4. The [SET] register flashes quickly and regis-
ters [1], [2], [3], [4] light yellow or red:
Red means that the USB memory contains no tabla-
ture file (the corresponding treble register does noth-
ing).
Yellow means that the USB memory does contain
settings for the corresponding tablature file (1, 2, 3 or
4).
In the example above, the USB memory doesn’t con-
tain the “RDCK1.XML” file.
5. Press treble register [1], [2], [3] or [4] to
select the Tablature Set (12 settings!) you
want to load.
6. Press the [SET] register again to exit Func-
tion mode.
NOTE
If one of the treble registers flashes red, the FR-18 diatonic
has noticed an error:
• Missing USB memory
• Load error
Importing optional expansion
sounds
The FR-18 diatonic allows you to add new sounds to the
internal sounds. The new sounds (files with the “.BID”
extension) must be copied to a USB memory, after
which you can load them with the FR-18 diatonic.
“Loading” means that they will be copied to a perma-
nent internal memory area. There are two such memory
areas (“A” and “B”).
1. Connect an optional USB memory to the
FR-18 diatonic’s USB MEMORY port.
2. Press and hold the [SET] register (it flashes
slowly).
The treble keyboard doesn’t play.
3. Press button “33” on the treble keyboard to
select the “Import expansion sounds”
parameter.
See page 42 for the location of that button.
IMPORTANT REMARK: Loading a sound expansion
file will overwrite the selected memory bank and
replace the sounds that were previously stored there.
You cannot select just a single sound from an expan-
sion file.
4. The [SET] register flashes quickly and regis-
ters [1], [2], [3] and [4] light yellow or red:
Red means that the USB memory contains no sound
expansion file (the corresponding treble register does
nothing).
