FR-7x V-Accordion
® 10. System parameters (Advanced)
Parameter Explanation
Rtry Fast** The footswitch allows you to select the
fast rotation speed.
Note: The function is only meaningful if the
Rotary effect is currently on.
Brake The footswitch allows you to switch the
OnOff** TW organ part's brake effect on and off.
This simulates the effect you get when you
switch a tonewheel organ off ("On") or on
("Off") while playing.
Brake On** When you press the footswitch, the pitch
will gradually fall.
Brake Off** When you press the footswitch, the pitch
will gradually rise from a lower to the reg-
ular level.
Modul. The footswitch allows you to add vibrato
to the notes you are currently playing.
Play/Pause The footswitch can be used to start and
temporarily stop playback of the selected
audio file (see p. 38).
Skip BWD The footswitch allows you to return to the
beginning of the currently selected audio
file. Press it twice to jump to the beginning
of the previous file in alphabetical order. It
can also be used to select the previous
step of the selected playlist (see p. 42).
Skip FWD The footswitch allows you to jump to the
next audio file in alphabetical order
("FWD"). It can also be used to select the
next step of the selected playlist.
REC Start/ The footswitch allows you to start and
Stop stop the FR-7x's audio recorder (see p. 47).
Set 1~80 The selected footswitch can be used to
recall the specified Set (i.e. the Set whose
number you choose).
Register The footswitch can be used to recall the
1~14 selected Treble register. That is why you
must specify a number here.
Null The footswitch has no function.
* This setting only makes sense if you connect the FBC-7's MIDI
OUT socket to the MIDI IN socket of an arranger module, drum
machine, etc.
** This is only meaningful if you are using an orchestra register
that plays a TW organ sound.
10.4 Sustain Routing A, 10.5 Sustain Routing B
(All, Treble, Bass, Chord, Orch.,
Orch.Bs, Orch.BsCh, Orch.FBs)
The parameters on these
pages allow you to specify
whether or not the available
sections (see "PART") should
be controlled by the foot-
switch that has the "Sust.A"
("Sustain Routing A") or
"Sust.B" ("Sustain Routing B") function (page 87).

do not want to control in this way.
10.6 Function Switch
This parameter allows you to
use the bass button column
closest to the FR-7x logo to
select or control the desired
functions. When this parame-
ter is set to "On", the buttons in question can no longer
be used to play notes or chords.
At first, the buttons will have the following factory
default settings (they can be changed with the parame-
ter discussed below):
Bass button Function
[1] Pitch Down
[2] Modulation
[3] Sustain
[4] Brake Off
[5] Brake On
[6] Rotary Slow/Fast
10.7 Function Switches Edit
The parameters on this page
allow you to assign the desired
functions to the bass buttons
that can be used as function
switch. Remember that these
functions are only used when the "Function Switch"
parameter (see above) is set to "On".
