This function allows you to save the settings you
made on the "SMF/Style Compressor" page.
1.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
"YES", then press the dial to save the cur-
rent settings.
The display shows a confirmation message.
If you don't want to define the current settings as
the default state, rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to
select "NO", then press the dial. The BK-7m then
returns to the "SMF/Style Compressor" page.
NOTE
There is only one "User" memory for your own settings. By
saving new settings, you therefore overwrite the previous
ones.
NOTE
When you switch on the BK-7m, it automatically loads the
"User" settings.

SMF/Style Equalizer

To edit the SMF/Style Equalizer parameters, use [MENU]
button ‰ "Mastering Tools" ‰ "SMF/Style Equalizer".
The equalizer has the same function as the TREBLE, MID
and BASS knobs on a mixer: it allows you to color the
sound, or to apply tonal corrections.
1.
Select an SMF song or a Music Style and
start playback.
2.
Set the "Switch" parameter to "On" to acti-
vate the equalizer.
The equalizer is now active and will affect SMF song
or Music Style playback. (Select "Off" to switch the
equalizer back off.)
3.
Use the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select the
"Preset" parameter, then press the dial.
4.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
one of the available presets, then press the
dial.
The available presets are:
1. Flat

lowing parameters using the

Explanation
0~127
Use this parameter to set
the equalizer's input
level. This may be neces-
sary when the level of
the input signals is so
high that the sound dis-
torts.
NOTE
Do not set this param-
eter to "0" if the equal-
izer is switched on,
because doing so
means that the SMF
song/Music Style is no
longer audible.
–9~0~9dB
Use this parameter to
correct the level at the
equalizer's outputs. If
the settings of the
remaining parameters
lead to a significantly
lower level, select a posi-
tive value. If your set-
tings lead to a
significantly higher level,
select a negative value.
"0" means that the level
is neither boosted nor
attenuated.
2000~
Allows you to set the
12000Hz
cutoff frequency of the
high band (this is a
shelving filter).
–15~15dB
Use this parameter to set
the level of the selected
"High" frequency. Posi-
tive values boost
(increase the volume of)
that frequency band,
negative values cut
(attenuate) it.
200~8000Hz
Allows you to set the
cutoff frequency of the
middle band (this is a
peaking filter).
0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8
Use this parameter to
specify the width of the
"Mid Frequency" band
that you want to boost
or cut. Smaller values
mean that neighboring
frequencies above/below
that value are also
affected.
