4. FREE BASS EDIT parameters
The parameters of the FREE BS EDIT group apply to the Bass section when it is used in Free Bass mode
(see p. 24) and are saved to the selected Set. They allow you to build your own (virtual) accordion. After
setting these parameters, you probably also need to adjust the TREBLE EDIT parameters (which are also
saved to a Set). See pages 39 and 41 for how to select and adjust the parameters.
Press [UP] and [DOWN] simultaneously to select the value that is indicated as “Default setting”. See also “Introduction”
on p. 44 for some general hints.
All changes you make here apply to the last Free Bass
register you selected. So be sure to press the register
whose settings you wish to change before selecting
and editing any of the FREE BS EDIT parameters. You
can, however, decide to save your settings to a differ-
ent register (see below) if you realize that you’ve
been editing the wrong one.
See page 71 for how to select the note system for
Free Bass mode. That setting is shared by all Sets.
Any changes you make can be saved using the WRITE
function. Though there is no need to save your changes
right after performing them, please bear in mind that
they will be lost in the following cases:
When you select another Set
When you switch off the FR-7b/FR-5b
Changes you want the FR-7b/FR-5b to remember must

[DOWN] buttons) to select “Free Bass”.

Depending on what you chose in step (3) above, the
display now looks as follows:
(6) Enter a name for the register you are about to
save.
See p. 44 for details. Changing the name is only nec-
essary if you don’t agree with the name that appears
in the display.
(7) Press the [MENU÷WRITE] button to jump to the fol-
lowing page:
(8) Use the [DATA÷ENTER] knob or the [UP]/[DOWN]
buttons to select the Set that should contain your
changed version(s).
Change this setting only if you do not want to save
your settings to the current Set.
(9) (Only for “Current”:)
Press the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select “REGISTER”,
then turn it to select the number of the register
where you want to save your edited version (1~7).

bet, because it ensures that no Free Bass
