11. One Touch Memories: Why using them?

The ONE TOUCH memories help you to select Tones for the real-
time parts that match the atmosphere of the current rhythm. There
are four such ONE TOUCH memories per rhythm.

Select a 'One Touch'

1.
Select the desired rhythm.
See "Selecting Rhythms" (p. 38).
2.
Switch on the [ONE TOUCH] button (its indicator lights).
If you haven't selected any ONE TOUCH memory since switching
on the BK-9, the indicators of TONE buttons [1], [2], [3] and [4] flash.
Otherwise, the BK-9 automatically recalls the last ONE TOUCH
memory you selected.
The display shows the list of tones for each One Touch:
The string ("..on.." or "......") at the right of the part name (UP1, UP2,
LWR, MBS) indicates which part will be active:
String Explanation
"......" The part will not be active.

In the example above the UP1 part will be active.

ONE TOUCH memory ([1]~[4]).

Now press another TONE ([1]~[4]) button than the one
that is currently active.

Again play a melody on the keyboard.
The newly selected ONE TOUCH memory has recalled a different
sound for the melody part. Note that the ONE TOUCH function also
recalls other settings, like the tempo, INTRO/ENDING, etc.
MEMO
The BK-9 has a function that allows you to exclude certain
settings when a new ONE TOUCH memory is selected. See
"One Touch Hold" (p. 144).
8.
Press a different TONE [1]~[4] button to recall the
associated ONE TOUCH memory.
Tone selection for the real-time part as well as other settings change
in accordance with the newly selected ONE TOUCH memory.

Deselect 'One Touch'

1.
To switch off the ONE TOUCH function and return to the
Tones that were selected before you activated the ONE
TOUCH function, press the TONE [1]~[4] button whose
indicator lights steadily.
Its indicator flashes along with the other three TONE buttons.
2.
Press the [ONE TOUCH] button to leave ONE TOUCH
memory selection mode.
The TONE buttons stop flashing. (Only the indicator corresponding
to the last Tone family you selected lights steadily.) You can now
select different Tones for real-time part without actually leaving the
ONE TOUCH function (if it is still on).
