Backing Module BK-7m
9. Music Style functions
The BK-7m contains a function that plays back automatic accompaniments called “Music Styles”. This section explains
how to take advantage of the BK-7m’s accompaniments.
Volume balance between the
backing and the real-time parts
If the Music Style accompaniment is too loud or too soft
with respect to the real-time parts you are using, you
can change the balance with the [BALANCE] knob:
Turn it towards “PART” to make the accompaniment
softer, or towards “BACKING” if the real-time parts are
too loud with respect to the accompaniment.
About the Music Styles
The BK-7m can generate interactive accompaniments
based on the Music Style you select. Each Music Style is
a typical accompaniment for a given musical genre. The
BK-7m comes with 433 internal Music Styles divided
over 10 families (see the “RHYTHM FAMILY” section on
the front panel).
The melodic accompaniment parts of the selected Music
Styles follow the chords you play on the external MIDI
controller (keyboard, MIDI accordion, MIDI guitar, etc.).
The BK-7m uses special MIDI parts to receive this note
information: “NTA”, which is short for “Note-to-
Arranger”. Your MIDI controller must therefore transmit
its note information for the accompaniment function
(Arranger) on a MIDI channel assigned to an NTA part.
Using Music Styles
The “interactive” aspect about the Music Styles is that
you can change the key of the accompaniment simply
by playing different notes or chord on your MIDI con-
troller. Additionally, you can select different variations
(more or less complex arrangements) for the active
Music Style. The BK-7m provides several buttons for
this.
■ START/STOP
This button is used to start and stop Music Style play-
back. While a Music Style is running, the button’s
indicator flashes red on the first beat of each bar, and
green on the remaining beats.
NOTE
You can also start (and stop) Music Style playback simply
by playing on the external MIDI controller. See the next
function.
