Bass & Chord Mode
(1~6, Default setting: 1) This parameter
allows you to specify the number of but-
ton rows for playing bass notes. The
default is “1” (2 bass rows and 4 chord rows). By select-
ing “3 Bs Rows”, you thus gain 20 bass buttons (an
entire row) and lose the “dim” chord buttons – but that
may just be more convenient for you. See also the illus-
tration on page 45.
There are four “3 Bs Rows” options: “[2]
A-7th
” and
“[4]
B-7th
” mean that the 6th chord row plays seventh
chords (“7”) that don’t contain the fifth. In the case of a
C7 chord, you therefore hear C-E-B
b
(but not the G).
“A-7th” and “B-7th” differ in the arrangement of the
bass notes (see the illustration on page 45).
The “[3]
A-5dim
” and “
[5] B-5dim
” options mean that
those seventh chords don’t contain the root note. A C7
chord is then sounded with the notes E-G-B
b
(but not
the C). “A-5dim” and “B-5dim” differ in the arrange-
ment of the bass notes (see the illustration on page 45).
The “[6]
Bx-7th
” option reverses the “B-7th” settings
(from right to left), so that the C3 note shifts from 9th
to 12th position.
Note:
The FR-3 is supplied with several reference caps designed
to help you locate the bass and chord buttons without looking at
them. See also page 23.
Note:
This parameter is not reset when you load the factory
defaults (page 55).
Metronome Function
([1] Metronome, [2] MIDI Start/Stop,
Default setting: 1) This parameter allows
you to specify how you want to use the
[METRONOME]
button. In most cases, you will probably
use “1” to take advantage of the internal metronome.
You can, however, also define it as a MIDI remote con-
trol in order to start and stop playback of an external
sequencer or arranger module. In that case, select “2”.
The metronome function is then no longer available.
See page 49 for details about the MIDI functions.
Note:
The remote control function only works when you set the
FR-3’s “MId” parameter to “OUT”.
