Using Sets

V-Accordion

7. Using Sets

The FR-3x is a “virtual” accordion. It recreates the sounds of various accordion instruments and can even generate

orchestral sounds (like trumpet, flute, etc.), organ and drum sounds.

Recalling a Set is similar to switching to a different

accordion.

The FR-3x contains 25 Sets divided over 10 families. 9

Set families have been programmed at the factory

(“CLASSIC”~“ETHNIC”, see the legends above the treble

registers), while one family (“USER”) can be used to load

User Sets from an optional USB memory.

Each Set family may comprise several Sets (see “Factory

Sets” on p. 69). Recalling a Set immediately changes the

settings of the sections presented on p. 26 and config-

ures the treble and bass registers.

Selecting Sets

To select the desired Set, proceed as follows:

Press the [SET] register.

The number of the selected Set flashes in the display.

The first digit from the left refers to the Set family,

the second to the Set memory within that family. If,

after pressing [SET] once, you do not press a treble

while.

In that case, press [SET] again and proceed with step

NOTE

If you hold down [SET] for more than 2 seconds without

pressing another register, the FR-3x switches to PARAME-

TER mode. In that case, press [SET] again to leave that

mode, then repeat step 1.

Press one of the treble registers [1]~[0] to

select the Set family.

Set selection is handled in the following way:

• If the Set family you select is the same as the one you

have been using so far, the FR-3x selects the next Set

within that family.

Example: Pressing [1] CLASSIC while the display

shows “11” selects Set memory “12” (still within the

“CLASSIC” family).

To go from Set “11” to Set “14”, you therefore need to

press register [1] three times after pressing [SET].

• If you select a different Set family, the FR-3x

switches to the newly selected Set family and recalls

the last memory you selected within that family.

NOTE

For the User Set memories, the display shows a “U” and the

number of the selected User Set (1~4). There are four User

Sets.

NOTE

See the table on page 69 for the factory-programmed Sets.

NOTE

While the USER PRG indicator below the display lights, it is

impossible to select Sets.
