Backing Keyboard BK-5 OR
Panel description
I
AUDIO REC button
This button is used to start audio recording of your
performance. This function records everything the
BK-5 OR transmits to its OUTPUT sockets (audio sig-
nals you play back and audio versions of the MIDI
parts you control). See page 55.
This button is also used to select the Rhythm Com-
poser function (see p. 85).
J
BASS INV button
This button is used to switch the Bass Inversion func-
tion on and off (page 31).
K
AUTO FILL IN button
This button is used to activate the Auto Fill-In func-
tion, which causes a transition to be played before
selecting the new rhythm variation (which is selected
with the VARIATION buttons).
L
VARIATION 1/2/3/4 buttons
These buttons are used to select a rhythm "Variation",
i.e. a simpler or more complex arrangement of the
selected rhythm.
M
INTRO button
When you activate this button, rhythm playback
starts with a musical introduction whose complexity
depends on which VARIATION button currently lights
(there are four different introductions per rhythm).
After selecting a song file, this button allows you to
rewind.
NOTE
You can also press this button during rhythm playback.
N
ENDING button
When you activate this button, rhythm playback
stops with a musical ending whose complexity
depends on which VARIATION button currently lights
(there are four different ending phrases per rhythm).
After selecting a song file, this button allows you to
fast-forward.
12
O START/STOP button
This button allows you to start and stop rhythm play-
back. If you select a song, it starts and temporarily
stops (pause) song playback.
P
MEMORY and USER SCALE buttons
These three buttons allow you to save and recall the
tuning settings carried out with the USER SCALE but-
tons. When the BK-5 OR is shipped, these memories
already contain useful settings.
The USER SCALE buttons allow you to change the
tuning of each note of the scale (one octave). By
default, pressing one of these buttons will lower the
corresponding notes in all octaves by a quarter tone
(–50 cents). Other tunings can also be selected and
saved to one of the three scale memories or a Perfor-
mance.
NOTE
The settings of the USER SCALE buttons are also saved to a
Performance, so that you can use the three Scale memories
for more "general" settings.
