HIGH [12]: Now it becomes a little
more complicated – but very inter-
esting indeed. If you select this
mode and play just one note, you
will hear the orchestral sound. If
you keep holding that key/button
while pressing another (lower) key/
button to its left, the upper note is
played by the Orchestra sound. Lower notes, how-
ever, are played by the Treble accordion sound. This is
perfect for situations where you need to play chords
and a solo line using different sounds. Something like
this:
LOW [11]: This is the opposite of
HIGH and can be used in situations
where the melody (or counter-mel-
ody) lies above the notes you wish
to hold.
(2) Again play a few notes and listen to the result.
■Setting the volume of the (Treble) Orchestra
sound
There may be times (in DUAL, HIGH or LOW mode)
when the ORCHESTRA sound is too loud or too soft
with respect to the Treble accordion sound. In that
case, you can change its volume:
(1) Press and hold the [SET] register until the display
shows a parameter name, then release it.
(2) Use register [3÷√] or [4÷®] to select the following
parameter:
By doing so, you enter a mode called “PARAM LIST”
where you can set the available parameters (see also
p. 39). “O L” is short for “Orchestra Level”, i.e. the vol-
ume setting of the Orchestra section.
(3) Use register [1÷–] or [2÷+] to set the desired value.
This is actually a balance parameter with a setting
range of –40~“Std”~+40. “Std” means that the
Orchestra part uses its “normal” volume. Negative
values (–) make the Orchestra part softer, while posi-
tive values (+) make it louder.
Note: Press registers [1] and [2] simultaneously to return to the
factory setting of the currently selected parameter.
You can now decide whether or not to save your set-
