The workings of an accordion's Stradella bass

- This uses an accordion with both Free bass and Stradella bass to explain the notes triggered by the bass and chord buttons in the Stradella bass section of the accordion.
What model is this Accordion? The Free Bass System is common on Russain Accordions.
Not really a "model" since it is a special-built Hohner Morino. Apart from the registration and range, a model with similar keyboard on the bass side would be a Hohner Artiste XD. Russian bayans (apart from being B system) differ by being converter accordions where the free bass is accessed through the same 4 button rows as the chords are in standard bass mode. In contrast, these old Hohner models have additional 3 rows on the inside for the free bass.
@@texdak Where is the Master Switch? Every Accordion has to have a master switch so you can get the fullest sound if you're supporting Choirs.
@@texdak I wish they made these Accordions again cause they're so cool.
@@texdak Fun fact the Hohner Morino was actually John Lennon's Accordion
@@RockStarOscarStern634 Last time I heard, lots of choirs are supported by pianos without a master switch. And there are lots of accordions without an explicit "master switch" (which just engages one particular register) on either bass or treble side. I've supported a wedding congregation combo with this instrument (and without a microphone) and played the wedding march solo. It definitely can go to the loud side without a master switch. In the second stanza of ruclips.net/video/W-MfHLGm9gw/видео.html I get a bit louder on the way...
I don’t know this type of base setup.
The outer six rows are a normal 120-bass setup (there are a few additional buttons for aesthetic reasons as filler). The inner three rows access only single notes from the bass/chord construction and bypass the chord forming mechanism. These days it is more usual to see converter accordions where you can switch the outer 4 chord rows to instead access single notes. Before Morino started working at Hohner, he had already built several accordions with additional single-note button rows. At the time that meant doing all the mechanics by hand rather than being able to buy them ready-made, so I don't blame him for not inventing the converter as well.
