FR-2/FR-2b V-Accordion
6. Editing FUNCTION settings
The FR-2/FR-2b provides a series of specialized parameters that may come in handy when you need to fine-tune the FR-2/FR-2b’s
response to your playing style. Some of these settings can be saved to the FR-2/FR-2b’s User Programs (see p. 22).
Selecting the desired function
(1) Press and hold the [SET] E register until it starts flash-
ing.
The Treble keyboard can now be used to select the desired
function. If you own an FR-2b, please refer to the follow-
ing illustration for the Treble buttons you need to press
(depending on the selected Treble mode, the buttons may
be assigned to different notes). For the sake of conve-
nience, the note names of the keyboard version are also
shown.
(2) Press the indicated key or Treble
button.
(Key names with a “#” symbol refer
to black keys.)
The [SET] register now flashes rapidly,
and the Treble keyboard can once
again be used to play notes.
(3) Use registers [1]~[8] F to select one
of the suggested values.
There may be fewer than 8 registers
for the parameter you select.
Alternatively, use the [DEC] or [INC] button to select the
desired turning. Sometimes, there are more options than
can be selected with the 8 registers.
You can also press and hold these buttons to quickly select
a significantly higher or lower value. Each time you select a
setting that is also assigned to a register, the register in
question lights.
Note: Press the [PAD/DEFAULT] G button or the register flagged
with a “•” in the discussion below to return to the factory setting of
the currently selected parameter.
(4) Press the [SET] register twice to leave the FR-2/FR-2b’s
FUNCTION mode.
If you want to set another FUNCTION parameter, press [SET]
once (it flashes slowly), followed by the desired key, then
proceed with step (3) above.
→ In the following, the messages at the right edge of the
gray bars have the following meaning:
“OK”: Can be saved in the Global area (common to all Sets).
“POW”: Reset when you switch off the FR-2/FR-2b.
