About the ‘Note’ messages
As stated above, note messages comprise a note
number, a velocity value and a Gate Time value.
The range for note numbers is “0 (C–)”~“127 (G9)”.
Velocity messages can be set anywhere between “1”
(extremely soft) and “127”. The value “0” cannot be
entered, because it would effectively switch off the
note.
This message type is only available for melodic
rhythm tracks (i.e. not for ADrums or ABass tracks)
and needs to be inserted by hand (using “Create
Event”). Rhythm tracks you only just recorded do not
contain it.
It allows you to use a revolutionary system for adapt-
ing the recorded notes to a more natural behavior
(also known as “voicing”). There are two options:
Degree—This setting refers to the “old” system for
real-time conversion of rhythm track information for
Arranger playback. Based on the fundamentals of the
chords you play during Arranger playback, it often
leads to odd jumps of certain parts.
Nearest—Refers to a more musical system for
real-time shifts of the recorded rhythm notes during
Arranger playback. Let us first look at an illustration:
This new system is called “Adaptive Chord Voicing”.
The notes of the melodic rhythm tracks are compared
against the chords played in the recognition area. If
the next chord you play contains the note the
selected part is already sounding (based on the previ-
ous chord), that note is maintained.
If the new chord does not contain that note, the
rhythm part in question uses the closest (“Nearest”)
note. In the example above, the “G” is closer to the
“A” sounded by the strings part than the “C”. This
produces a more musical behavior than any other
system on the market.
Both “Degree” and “Nearest” allow you to specify the
note range (“Limit Low” and “Limit High”) the
selected part may play. Notes that would fall outside
that range during Arranger playback are automati-
cally transposed to values inside the selected range.
Rather than specifying two note values, you can also
choose “Std”, which means that the BK-5 decides
automatically when extremely high (or low) notes
need to be shifted down (or up) by one or several
octaves.
Other edit operations
The “Micro Edit” page allows you to select several func-
tions.
You can select several consecutive events and edit
them in one go: select the first event of a series, press
and hold the [ENTER/SELECT] button and rotate the
[CURSOR÷VALUE] dial.
1.
Select the event you want to edit.
2.
Press the [MENU] button (its indicator
flashes).
The display changes to:
The top line shows the event type that can be edited
(“CC00 Bank MSB” in our example) and its location
(“001:01:000”). You cannot change the event type on
this page.
If you selected several events (see above), the display
looks as follows:
3.
Use the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select the
desired edit function, then press the
[ENTER/SELECT] button.
