• To insert a space before the currently selected char-
acter and push all subsequent characters one posi-
tion to the right, select the character that should fol-
low the space, then press and hold [UP]. Example: To
insert a space before the “s” in “Celeste” (creating the
name “Cele ste”), position the cursor on the “s” and
hold down [UP] for a while.
Note: If the name already contains 8 characters (“Bandoneo”),
the last character is erased (example: “Band one”).
• To delete the character indicated by the cursor and
move subsequent characters one position to the left,
select it (example: “Celeste”) and press and hold
[DOWN] (“Celete”).

lowing page:

Change this setting only if you do not want to save
your settings to the current Set.

Note: See pages 38 and 40 for how to select and adjust the
parameters below.
2.1 Reed Type
This parameter allows you to do
two things that are impossible
with an acoustic accordion: you
can (a) transform the selected
register into a different instru-
ment and (b) assign different sounds to each footage
the register plays.
Note: Each FOOT can be assigned one TYPE (combinations like
“16= Bandoneon, 16= TexMex, 16= Organetto” are impossible).
A register, as you may know, may contain several reeds
tuned to different pitches (“feet”), so that you hear the
16’, 8’ and 4’ reeds when you select it, for example. The
“Register” parameter below allows you to select the
desired footage(s). Here, you specify how each reed
(that can be assigned to a register) should sound. This
allows for complex combinations like the following:
We’ll let you decide whether such a combination really
makes sense, but it is possible… For each of the 14 Tre-
ble registers, that is.
• If necessary, press the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select
the “FOOT” parameter, then rotate the [DATA÷ENTER]
knob to select the reed you wish to assign another
sound to.
The options are: ALL, 16, 8, 8–, 8+, 4, 5-1/3, 2-2/3
• Press the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the “TYPE”
parameter, then rotate the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to
select a type (“instrument”).
The TYPE options are: Bandoneon, I-Folk, I-Folk2,
Classic, Cajun, Jazz, F-Folk, D-Folk, Organetto, F-Folk2,
Classic2, Studio, Tradition, Steierische, OldItaly,
TexMex, Trikitixa.
To save time while changing the TYPE for one or sev-
eral reeds, you could proceed as follows: suppose all
reeds are currently set to the “wrong” TYPE and you
want to use 16’, 8’ and 4’ as “Bandoneon”. In that
case, set FOOT to “ALL” and TYPE to “Bandoneon”.
Next, use STATUS on the “Register” page to switch off
the reeds you do not need.
Note: Whenever you select “ALL” and set a different reed type,
the “Valve Noise” setting is automatically adapted to the reed
type you select here. You may have to change it afterwards if
you wish to use a different noise type.
