10. Using Sets
Your FR-8x is a "virtual" accordion. It recreates the sounds of various
accordion instruments and can even generate orchestral sounds
(like trumpet, flute, etc.), organ and drum sounds.
There are 100 Set memories and some of them already contain
useful settings right out of the box. But you can replace them
with your own settings. (And if 100 Sets are not enough, you can
archive and load new sets using an optional USB memory) see
EXPORT" (p. 110)
and
"15.8 IMPORT" (p.
The FR-8x has an extra Set memory called Working Area (W.A). This
area is used to load a Set linked to a User Program. See
with User Programs" (p.
57).
What is a set?
Each set is a type of accordion.
When you change a set you change your
accordion into another accordion.
The FR-8x comes with different accordions
(sets) already programmed.
Obviously your "Virtual" accordion is capable
of playing also orchestral, organ and drum
sounds
Design your own accordion.
Moreover you can change many parameters
designing your favorite accordion and save
them into a Set. See
42).
See
"2. Accordion Edit Parameters" (p. 71)

register [1]. To select Set "37", first press register [3], then register [7].

automatically selects that Set after ±2 seconds.
How to Save a Set
The FR-8x has a memory that holds the data of all Sets, User
Program, Registers, Global settings, etc. You can change whatever
you need to change without worrying about saving your changes
until you are sure that you want to keep them. Be aware, however,
that all unsaved changes are lost when you switch off the FR-8x or
when it is turned off by the "AUTO OFF" function
So be sure to save everything you want to keep at regular intervals.
