Sophisticated bellows response
Faster response and higher sensitivity and precision plus detection
of bellows opening/closing with new bellows pressure sensing
circuitry. A bellows resistance regulator knob allows you to adjust
the bellows’ inertia to your preference.
Super realistic accordion simulations
All sounds the FR-3x produces were obtained by sampling popular
traditional acoustic accordions. This V-Accordion allows you to
switch from an Italian jazz accordion to German folk, French
musette or Russian bajan sound – without changing your technique.
Also the Virtual Tone Wheel is available to play amazing organ
sounds in almost the same way as an organ player using the treble
section. You can add a rotary effect (slow/fast).
Besides enjoy using the FR-3x to play simply drum parts with your
left hand (bass and chord sections).
Stand-alone electronic instrument
Though the FR-3x is a fully electronic instrument, you do not need
to connect it to an amplifier in order to produce sounds.
Its onboard amplification system is for small venues, restaurants, etc.
The FR-3x can also be powered using 1 0 commercially available
rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, so that you don’t need to connect it
to a wall outlet.
Save your settings to a USB storage device
You can save your settings by connecting an optional USB memory
to the FR-3x’s USB port. Also the USB host allows you to customize
orchestra and accordion sounds and to save/load the user program
data. What’s more, you can play MP3 and Wav files
Superb performance flexibility
The FR-3x allows you to control external MIDI-compatible
instruments. The Treble keyboard and chord/bass buttons are
velocity-sensitive, while the bellows controller provides more
articulation possibilities than any other MIDI keyboard, MIDI wind
instrument, etc., you may know.instrument, etc., you may know.
