Reset/Start This function allows you to have the
BK-7m start on the first beat of the

tern when you press the assigned
footswitch. Use it when you are
accompanying a singer or soloist
whose timing is a little shaky and
suddenly notice that the playback
lags one or two beats behind the
singer/soloist.
AudioXfade The footswitch can be used to acti-
vate a crossfade between two files.
To make this work, select a different
song while the current song is being
played back and press the foot-
switch. The BK-7m creates a brief
blend between the current and the
next song. (This function is only
available between two audio songs.)
Fade Out This function gradually decreases
the volume until reaches zero. At
that time, song or Style playback
stops automatically.
Backing Module BK-7m
Function Explanation
ChordRecOff While you are holding down the
footswitch, the BK-7m does not scan
the incoming note messages for
chord information. Those messages
are therefore only transmitted to the
active real-time parts (UP1, UP2,
LWR, MBS). Release the footswitch
to once again activate chord recog-
nition.
