FR-7x V-Accordion
10.9 Free Bass Mode
(Default setting: Minor 3rd)
This parameter allows you to
choose the note system used
in Free Bass mode. We already
mentioned that there are a
vast number of accordion varieties. The same is true of
Free Bass systems.
Your FR-7x contains the 5 most popular ones (see the
illustration on page 91). Be aware that the system you
select here is only used when you activate the FR-7x’s
Free Bass mode. It is of no consequence for the “regular”
Bass mode.
Note: The FR-7x is supplied with several reference caps
designed to help you locate the bass buttons without looking
at them. See also page 27.
10.10 Stereo Width
(–63~–1, Natural, Wide,
Default setting: –15) As stated
on p. 17, much care has been
taken to provide a natural ste-
reo image for the accordion
sounds. If you think the stereo image is too wide for
comfort (or if you prefer to set the PAN controls on your
mixing console differently), you can use this parameter
to reduce the stereo image.
“Wide” represents the widest stereo image. “Natural”
means that the original stereo image is used, while
“–63” corresponds to an extremely narrow stereo image.
All other values represent slight (or increasingly drastic)
reductions of the stereo width.
