FR-1x V-Accordion
This parameter allows you to select the
type of drum/percussion instruments
you wish to play simultaneously with
the bass and chord section. See also “Playing drum/per-
cussion sounds” on p. 30.
This parameter allows you to set the
audio level of the drum sounds.
Select “Lo” (low), “Med” (medium) or “Hi” (high) to use a
preset level value. If you select a value, it is added to, or
subtracted from, the standard value (“Std”).
This parameter allows you to set the
level of the orchestral sounds. It can be
useful to create the desired “mix” (vol-
ume balance) with the treble accordion sounds.
This is a relative parameter, which means that its value
is added to, or subtracted from, the standard value
(“Std”).
This parameter allows you to set the
level of the organ sounds. It can be use-
ful to create the desired “mix” (volume
balance) with the treble accordion sounds.
This is a relative parameter, which means that its value
is added to, or subtracted from, the standard value
(“Std”).
Orchestra Bass Level, Orchestra Chord Level,
Orchestra Free Bass Level
These parameters allow you to set the
audio level of the Orchestra Bass,
Orchestra Chord and Orchestra Free Bass
sections.
You will probably agree that electronic
sounds must not only reproduce the
basic timbre of an existing sound, but
also the original instrument’s behavior and typical
“noises” in order to be perceived as authentic. In the
case of a guitar that would be the sliding noise of the
fingers. An accordion, on the other hand, produces
mechanical valve noises that cannot be suppressed on
an acoustic instrument.
Use this parameter to specify how prominent the noise
produced by the simulated treble valves should be.
The bass section of almost all accordion
instruments can be played via buttons.
Such buttons produce a typical noise
when pressed.
Use this parameter to specify how prominent that but-
ton noise should be.
This parameter allows you to simulate
the typical noise a bass reed makes just
before it stops vibrating altogether (a
kind of “musical flatulence” if you will). Each instru-
ment of the accordion family produces its own typical
growl.
Use this parameter to specify how prominent that
growl should be.
