information related to the treble keyboard are now sent over CH. #1 and CH. #4
simultaneously.
If the expander units connected to the accordion are correctly programmed, it is
possible to get two different sounds at the same time playing on the right hand
side.
The "SOLO" switch has a double function: it works as section switch like
"TREBLE", "CHORD" and "BASS" to allow separate effect selection for the SOLO
section (Midi Ch. #4), and also as ON/OFF to enable or disable Midi transmission
over Ch. #4.
When "SOLO" is on, if you want to select a different section without disabling
Solo transmission, press another section switch (i.e. TREBLE, CHORD, or BASS).
The SOLO light goes off, but the operation over Midi Ch. #4 is still enabled.

CH.#4, press "SOLO" once more : the red light goes off and the TREBLE light
comes on.

musical performance in a very simple way.

to worry any more about switching the right effects for each section during
their perfomances.
