The parameters of the
“ORCH.FBASS EDIT” group
apply to the bass buttons
while Free Bass mode is
active. See page 34 for
details about the ORCHESTRA FREE BASS section. This
section is not available while bass mode is active. See
pages 62 and 63 for how to select and adjust the
parameters.
Press [UP] and [DOWN] simultaneously to select the
value that is indicated as “Default setting”.
•The selection of ORCHESTRA FREE BASS can be auto-
mated using the “2.14 Orchestra Chord Link” parame-
ter (page 69).
•These parameters can only be selected if an ORCHES-
TRA FREE BASS register is selected (page 33).
See page 103 for how to save your changes. Also be
sure to read “Important remark about saving your
settings” on p. 64.
8.1 Timbre
This parameter group allows
you to assign the desired
orchestral or organ sound to
the selected register.
See “Assigning orchestral to
the registers” on p. 51 for the procedure. As stated there,
each register can select only one type of sound.
If you select a TW organ sound, you can also edit and
name it.
8.2 Octave
(–3~0~+3)
This parameter allows you to
transpose the ORCHESTRA
FREE BASS section (i.e. the
currently selected orchestral
or organ sound) up or down.
8.3 Volume
(Off, –40~“Std”~40, Default
setting: Std)
This parameter allows you to
set the volume of the
ORCHESTRA FREE BASS sec-
tion.
This is a relative parameter, which means that its value is
added to or subtracted from the standard value (“Std”).
8.4 Panpot
(Bass 63~0 Treb 0~63 Bass)
Depending on the selected
sound, this parameter allows
you to change the ORCHES-
TRA FREE BASS part’s place-
ment in the stereo sound field (i.e. between the left and
right speakers) to create a livelier sound image. The
“Treb” values mean that the sound will appear on the
same side as the treble accordion sound. This setting
applies to both the FR-7x’s internal speakers and the L/
MONO socket.
The “Bass” values mean that the sound will appear on
the same side as the bass accordion sound (which is not
currently available). This setting applies to both the
FR-7x’s internal speakers and the R/MONO socket.
Choose “0” if the ORCHESTRA FREE BASS sound should
be at the center of the stereo image.
Note: If a TW organ sound is assigned to the current ORCHES-
TRA FREE BASS register, the “VALUE” parameter will read
“Rotary” to signal that the “VALUE” parameter cannot be set.
8.5 Reverb Send, 8.6 Chorus Send, 8.7 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 Orchestra Free
Bass section). The higher the
value you set, the more the
Orchestra section will be pro-
cessed by the effect in ques-
tion.
The other sections (Bass, Free
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. 82).
Note: If a TW organ sound is assigned to the current ORCHES-
TRA CHORD register, the “LEVEL” value will read “Rotary” to
signal that the register is not processed by the FR-7x’s “general
effects” (see p. 55). In this case, the “LEVEL” parameter cannot
be set.
8.8 MIDI TX
This page contains a series of
MIDI parameters for the
ORCHESTRA FREE BASS sec-
tion you need to set one by
one. See page 113 for details
about the MIDI parameters. These parameters are saved
along with all other Set parameters, which allows you to
use different MIDI settings for each Set.
