Noise Edit (Valve & Button)
You will probably agree that electronic sounds must not
only reproduce the basic timbre of an existing sound,
but also the original instrument’s behavior and typical
“noises” in order to be perceived as authentic.
An accordion, produces mechanical valve and button
noises (clicks) that cannot be suppressed on an acoustic
instrument.
On the FR-7x, the volume of those noises can be
changed if you think they are too prominent or too soft.
Note that the parameters on the page shown below
belong to two different MENU sections and can be
found on separate menu pages: “Valve Level” is a Treble
parameter, “Button Level” is a Bass/Free Bass parameter.
Treble Valve Noise edit
(1) While the main page is displayed, press the [UP]
button four times.
(2) Rotate the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the desired
noise level.
This parameter has a setting range of “Off’, –40~+40.
A negative (–) value decreases the level of the noise
parameter, a positive (+) value increases it. Select
“STD” to return to the factory value, and “Off” if you
do not need the noise in question.
