FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion
(Off, Low, Standard, High, 
Default setting: Standard) This 
parameter allows you to specify 
how strongly the orchestral 
sound’s pitch should be influ-
enced by opening and closing the bellows faster than 
usual. This may further add to the realism of sounds like 
1A~4B, 6A, 6B and 10~12. 
If the “Standard” setting seems too mild, try “High”. If it 
is too strong, use “Low”. If you do not want any detun-
ing effect, select “Off”. The most convincing setting 
usually depends on the selected sound.
(0~127 for all three) Use these 
parameters to set the Reverb, Chorus 
or Delay send level (how much effect 
should be applied to the Orchestra 
section). The higher the value you set, 
the more the Orchestra section will be 
processed by the effect in question.
It works much the same way as a 
cathedral: the louder you sing, the 
more reverb (chorus or delay) you 
hear. In the case of the cathedral, singing louder means 
that you increase the effect send level, i.e. the level of 
the signal (your voice) that will be processed by the 
acoustic environment.
The other sections (Bass, Free Bass, etc.) have the same 
parameters, so that you can create a sound image with 
various “levels” (foreground, background).
(Off, 1/4 Down, 1/2 Down, 1/4 
Up, 1/2 Up, Default setting: Off) 
The FR-7/FR-5’s Treble keyboard 
generates aftertouch messages. 
“Aftertouch” refers to the fact 
that you press a key even further down after playing a 
note. This effect allows you to bend the pitch down 
(temporarily lower the note) by a quarter (“1/4 Down”) 
or a semi-tone (“1/2 Down”). Select “1/4 Up” or “1/2 Up” 
to bend the notes up a quarter or a semi-tone. Select 
“Off” to switch off the Orchestra section’s aftertouch 
recognition. 
The Treble section also contains this parameter. You are 
thus free to decide whether both the accordion and the 
orchestral sounds should be affected by aftertouch 
messages or only one of them.
Note: This aftertouch effect applies to all orchestral notes that 
are sounding simultaneously. If you play a chord and then only 
press down one key of the chord’s constituent notes, all notes are 
bent by the same amount. (MIDI buffs call this “channel after-
touch”.)
Note: For organ sounds (8A PercOrgan, 8B JazzOrgan, 
9A RotOrgan and 9B Trem Org), aftertouch allows you to alter-
nate between the fast and slow speeds of the Rotary effect. (That 
effect is automatically assigned to an organ sound when you 
select it.) The speed switching function cannot be deactivated. 
You can, however, also add pitch control to this switching func-
tion, and so control two functions via the aftertouch.
This page contains a series of 
MIDI parameters for the Orches-
tra section you need to set one 
by one. See page 86 for details 
about the MIDI parameters. 
These parameters are saved along with all other Set 
parameters, which allows you to use different MIDI set-
tings for each Set.
