Orchestral sounds for the Treble section
V-Accordion
r
27
DUAL [13]: The orchestral
sound is added to the Treble
accordion, so that each note
you play sounds like an accor-
dion, with the selected instru-
ment playing in unison.
Just as a reminder: here, both the ORCH and TREBLE
fields contain a keyboard icon to indicate that they
sound simultaneously.
HIGH [12]: Now it becomes a little more complicated
– but very interesting indeed. If you select this mode
and play just one note, it is sounded by the orchestral
sound. If you keep holding that button while pressing
another (lower) button to its left, the upper note is
played by the orchestral sound. Lower notes, how-
ever, are played by the Treble accordion sound. This is
perfect for situations where you need to play chords
and a solo line using different sounds. Something like
this:
LOW [11]: This is the opposite of HIGH and can be
used in situations where the melody (or counter-mel-
ody) lies above the notes you wish to hold.
(4) While holding down the [ORCHESTRA] register,
press [11], [12], [13] or [14] to select the desired
mode.
The display briefly confirms your selection (only one
of the following messages is actually displayed):
(5) Again play a few notes and listen to the result.
Note: The Orchestra mode setting can be saved to a Set (see
p. 48). The saved mode is recalled when you activate the
Orchestra part.
■Quickly adding and muting the orchestral sound
After activating the Orchestra section and selecting a
mode, you can play certain phrases using the accor-
dion sound and then add the selected orchestral
sound to it when you repeat such a phrase.
The following switches the Orchestra part on and off
in DUAL, HIGH or LOW mode. The Treble accordion
part goes on sounding, however.
(6) Press the Master bar that protrudes from under-
neath the Treble keyboard to switch the Orchestra
part on or off.
The display now looks as follows (same system for the
HIGH and LOW modes):
Note which field contains a keyboard icon, then press
the Master bar again and look at the display. Play a
few notes to understand what happens.
■Setting the volume of the (Treble) orchestral
sound
There may be times (in DUAL, HIGH or LOW mode)
when the ORCHESTRA sound is too loud or too soft
with respect to the Treble accordion sound. In that
case, you can change its volume:
Played by the Orchestra sound
Played by the accordion
Played by the accordion
