29
The FR-7x contains 49 orchestral sounds (of which 26 can be assigned to the registers), 32 tonewheel organ sounds for

In addition, you can play simple drum parts with your left hand.
Orchestral sounds for the treble
section
The orchestral sounds of the Treble section can be
played in isolation or together with the selected accor-
dion sound.
The FR-7x’s treble section allows you to select 26
orchestral or tonewheel organ sounds for each Set (13 +
13). The first 13 sounds can be recalled by first pressing
the [ORCHESTRA] register and then a register [1]~[13].
Let us agree to call this set “group A”.
The 13 sounds of the second (“group B”) can be selected

Note: These assignments have been programmed at the
factory and can be changed (see p. 51), meaning that any
orchestral sound can be assigned to any register.

(4) Press the [ORCHESTRA] register again to return to
the treble section’s accordion sound.
The keyboard icon in the upper right corner (see
above) and the arrow return to the “TREBLE” field,
which means that the treble keyboard will now play
