Data management via the FR-3x’s USB port

FR-3x V-Accordion

Importing the settings of a

previous FR-3 model

This function allows you to load MIDI bulk data of an

older FR-3 or FR-3b V-Accordion model from a USB

memory’s root directory.

CAREFUL! The settings loaded with the “OLd” function

will overwrite all of the FR-3x’s internal settings.

Preparing the file

Here is what you need to do with the FR-3:

NOTE

If you already have a backup file of the FR-3’s settings you are

interested in, you only need to make sure that the file with

those settings was saved as a Standard MIDI File and that its

name and extension conform to the requirements (three dig-

its + “.mid” extension).

• Connect the legacy FR-3 to your computer or your

computer’s MIDI interface.

•Use a sequencer program and the FR-3’s Bulk Dump

function (“dMP”) to transmit its settings to the com-

puter.

See the FR-3’s owners manual and the documenta-

tion of your sequencer program for details.

• Save the resulting sequence as a Standard MIDI File

(with the “.mid” extension).

NOTE

The file’s name may only consist of three digits and the

extension (“001.mid”, for example).

• Remove the USB memory from your computer and

connect it to the FR-3x (see “Connecting an optional

USB memory” on p. 34).

Loading your archived settings into the FR-3x

Press and hold down the [SET] register.

The display shows the name of the last parameter

you selected.

Use treble register [3] or [4] (PARAM LIST)

to select “OLd” (Old Data Load).

Use treble registers [1] and [2] (VALUE) to

select the number of the file you want to

load from the connected USB memory.

If the USB memory doesn’t contain any archive files,

the display will show “---” instead of a number.

Press treble register [7] (ENTER) to load the

selected archive file.

The display shows “lod” (Load), then “don” (Done) to

indicate that the file was loaded successfully. Next,

the FR-3x returns to the main page.
