The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product. INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WARNING ­ When using electric products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. [. . . ] Then reduce or increase the volume of the "ancillary" reed to create the desired balance. Note: The overall volume of the Free Bass section (all registers) can be changed using the [BALANCE] knob. 4. 6 Bellows Detune (Off, Low, Standard, High, Default setting: Standard) This parameter further adds to the realism of the sounds emulated by your FR-7/FR-5. Here, you can specify how strongly the pitch of the simulated Free Bass reed(s) changes when you open or close the bellows faster than usual. If the "Standard" setting seems too mild, try "High". If it is too strong, use "Low". If you do not want any detuning effect, select "Off". The most convincing setting usually depends on the selected instrument(s) (see "4. 1 Reed Type"). 4. 4 Button Noise The bass section of almost all accordion instruments can be played via buttons. Such buttons produce a typical noise when pressed. On this page, you can select the instrument whose button noises should be used when you select this register. (Note that other Free Bass registers can be assigned different noises. ) Notice that there is only one TYPE for the entire register. The options are: Bandoneon, Beltu, Beltu Amp, Buga, Cajun, Excels, Mauge, Morn, Organetto, Pierma, Pigi, Scanda, Sopra, Steierische, Trikitixa Use the LEVEL parameter to specify how prominent the noise should be (­30~"Std"~30, Default setting: Std). 4. 7 Reverb Send, 4. 8 Chorus Send, 4. 9 Delay Send (0~127 for all three) Use these parameters to set the Reverb, Chorus or Delay send level (how much effect should be applied to the Free Bass section). The higher the value you set, the more the Free Bass section will be processed by the effect in question. The other sections (Treble, Bass, etc. ) have the same parameters, so that you can create a sound image with various "levels" (foreground, background). The effects themselves can be edited on separate pages (see p. 55). r 48 V-Accordion r 4. 10 Free Bass MIDI TX 4. 10 Free Bass MIDI TX This page contains a series of MIDI parameters for the selected register you need to set one by one.
