Adjusting The Volume And Balance; Adjusting The Chorus And Reverb Effects - Roland FR-3X V-Accordion Owner's Manual

FR-3x V-Accordion
Before you start playing
• Your headphones may be damaged if the volume of a
device is already turned up when you plug them in.
Minimize the volume before you plug in the head-
phones.
• Excessive input will not only damage your hearing,
but may also strain the headphones. Please enjoy
music at an appropriate volume.

Adjusting the volume and balance

Here is how to adjust the volume on your FR-3x.
NOTE
If headphones are connected, the [VOL] knob controls the lis-
tening level.
1.
Use the [VOL] knob to set the desired vol-
ume.
Adjust the volume while you play the FR-3x and
move the bellows to produce sound.
Turning the [VOL] knob clockwise increases the vol-
ume, turning it counterclockwise decreases it.
2.
Use the [BAL] knob to adjust the volume
balance between the bass/chord and treble
sections.
Turning it towards "BASS" decreases the treble sec-
tion's volume. Turning it towards "TREBLE" decreases
the bass/chord section's volume.
The selected balance setting ("t1"~"t63", "0", "b1"~
"b63") is briefly shown in the display.

Adjusting the chorus and reverb
effects
The FR-3x contains two digital effects: Chorus and
Reverb. The chorus effect gives the impression that sev-
eral instruments of the same type are playing at the
same time (it is similar to detuning several reeds of a
register). The reverb effect gives the impression that
you are playing in a concert hall, a church or a room. It
adds "depth" to the sound.
1.
Rotate the [CHORUS] knob to adjust the
level of the chorus effect.
CHORUS
Adjust this setting while playing the FR-3x and mov-
ing the bellows to produce sound. The chorus level
you select (0~127) is briefly shown in the display.
2.
Rotate the [REVERB] knob to adjust the level
of the reverb effect.
REVERB
Adjust this setting while playing the FR-3x and mov-
ing the bellows to produce sound. The reverb level
you select (0~127) is briefly shown in the display.
3.
Turn the [CHORUS] or [REVERB] knob all the
way towards the small dot if you don't need
the effect in question.
NOTE
See p. 47 for how to select a different chorus or reverb
type.
