Roland FR-7x Accordion, Beginning Tutorial #1: Making and Saving System Changes

I'm re-listing my three tutorials for those 7x owners who are in need of a jump-start to programming the Roland FR-7x. If you would like to purchase the collection of 20 sets I have developed for the FR-7x, just email me. You can see examples of these sets in the various videos I have made. Visit my web site at www.noelaccordion.com for more information. Tutorial #1: How to Make and Save System Parameter Changes. This is a beginning tutorial on how to edit selected system and set parameters of the Roland FR-7x V-Accordion. I'm assuming almost no prior knowledge of the 7x in this video. A second, follow-up video is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vQyYK6dLvM. The second video demonstrates how to import/export sets, copy sets to different locations, and to restore factory sets. The third video demonstrates how to make changes to registers--changing the treble, bass, and chord voices (orchestral and acoustic), including adding percussion effects, and saving those changes to a USB stick. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=FR-7x+Tutorial+%233&aq=f. My ultimate aim is for owners to be able to "tweak" existing sets and to begin developing their own linked presets if they so choose. I use linked presets almost all of the time, and that will be my focus, especially in the third video. This video is based on my own experiences with the 7x. Others would likely use different procedures. I'm definitely NOT using high-powered equipment--just a camcorder taped to my homemade stand and very basic video editing software, so I make no pretensions of having a commercial product, just one that hopefully some 7x owners will find useful. Please experiment freely with the system and reverb settings to maximize the 7x for your playing preferences. My settings are purely suggestions to help get you started. Richard Noel
