Bass section
The buttons in this section allow you to play
both bass notes and chords. The “real” bass
notes are assigned to the two highlighted
rows. The remaining buttons are used to
play chords.
The overall sound the Bass section produces
is determined by the register you activated
last. This section can be used as “accordion”,
to play orchestral sounds, or both.
(1) Connect the FR-1 and switch it on.
See page 11.
(2) Grab the FR-1, press a register and start
playing on the Bass (button) keyboard.
When you only use the accordion sounds
(i.e. while the [ORCH¥BASS] B and
[ORCH¥CHORD] D buttons are dark), the
bass and chord buttons use the same
register, because they belong to the same
accordion section.
(3) If you think the sound is too loud or
too soft, you can change the setting of
the [VOLUME] knob A.
Using the orchestral sounds
Your FR-1 contains PCM sounds (samples) of various instruments that are not related to
accordion sounds. Those sounds allow you to expand your musical endeavours.
In addition, there is an Organ function for
the Treble keyboard, which can be used
instead of the orchestral (or accordion) sec-
tion.
Orchestral sounds for the Treble
section
Note: Only one orchestral sound can be selected
at any one time.
(1) Press the [ORCHESTRA÷ORGAN] G
button once or twice until it lights
red.
(2) Press one of the registers [1]~[4] once or
twice (it lights red).
(3) Play a few notes on the Treble key-
board.
Switching off the Orchestra part
To return to a state where the Treble
accordion section sounds:
(4) Press the [ORCHESTRA] button twice (it
goes dark).
Organ sounds for the Treble section
Note: Only one organ sound can be selected at
any one time.
(1) Press the [ORCHESTRA÷ORGAN] but-
ton once or twice until it flashes.
(2) Press one of the registers [1]~[4] (it
lights red).
See page 9 for the available sounds.
(3) Play a few notes on the Treble keyboard
to audition the organ sound.
