Backing Module
BK-7m
2. Features
The BK-7m is a professional backing module designed to provide everything the entertaining artist and serious amateur
musician needs on the stage, in the studio, or at home.
High-quality sounds
The best sounds generated by a top-level sound gen-
erator with 128-voice polyphony.
The BK-7m also contains two sounds that use
SuperNATURAL technology to realistically express the
sounds and simulate performance techniques of
these acoustic instruments.
Technology
SuperNATURAL is Roland’s proprietary sound-generation
technology that realistically reproduces the tonal changes
and performance techniques distinctive of an acoustic
instrument, allowing you to perform music that is natural
and richly expressive.
High-quality Music Styles
Your BK-7m comes loaded with over 400 impressive
accompaniment covering every musical genre. Each
Style comprises 4 Intros, 4 Main variations, 4 Endings,
3 “Up” and 3 “Down” Fill-Ins.
Four different settings for each Music Style (One
Touch)
Four different settings that assign the most suitable
tones, effects and other parameters to the real-time
parts depending on the Music Style you select.
USB-based Standard MIDI Files and Style player
The BK-7m plays Standard MIDI Files and Music
Styles directly from a connected USB memory.
USB-based audio player and audio recorder
The BK-7m contains an audio player function that
allows you to play back mp3 and WAV files directly
from a connected USB memory.
The BK-7m also allows you to record your perfor-
mances. The resulting WAV files (audio) can be played
back on the BK-7m itself.
Wizard connection
Simply following the instructions of the BK-7m’s
Wizard connection will allow you to connect the
BK-7m to an external MIDI controller (digital piano,
MIDI master keyboard, digital accordion, etc.) and to
start playing right away.
Four real-time parts
The BK-7m comes with four MIDI parts (Upper 1,
Upper 2, Lower, Manual Bass) that can be played in
real time—either together or in isolation.
16 NTA parts (Note-to-Arranger)
The BK-7m provides up to 16 MIDI parts dedicated to
Arranger control via MIDI (“Note-to-Arranger”).
16 Song parts
The BK-7m also provides 16 Song parts, which are
used for Standard MIDI File playback but can also be
controlled via MIDI (a computer connected to the
MIDI IN socket or the COMPUTER USB port). This
allows you to use the BK-7m as a 16-part multitim-
bral MIDI tone generator.
Cover function for Standard MIDI files and Music
Styles
Simply by selecting one of 30 presets, you can cause
a Viennese waltz to be played back by a heavy metal
band, etc. Even though the arrangement (rhythm,
riffs) does not change, the song’s character can be
changed beyond recognition.
Song and Style Makeup Tools for Standard MIDI
Files and Music Styles
These tools allow you to modify songs in no time
without knowing the MIDI commands normally used
to perform such changes.
Performance List function
This function allows you to save nearly all of the
BK-7m’s settings for each song and/or Music Style
you will be using during your performances. The list
that contains these settings can be saved to a USB
memory and loaded from there whenever the need
arises.
Multi-effects for Music Styles or Standard MIDI
files and real-time parts
With a view to obtaining the highest possible sound
quality, the BK-7m contains three dedicated multi-
effects processors (MFX A, B, and C) for the Standard
MIDI Files and Music Styles you play back. In addition,
there is one MFX processor for the real-tim parts
(Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower, Manual Bass).
Composite Video Out
The BK-7m’s VIDEO OUTPUT socket can be connected
to an external screen, allowing your audience or fel-
low musicians to follow the lyrics and chord symbols
of the songs you perform.
…and so much more!
