Saving System Settings (Orchestra Touch and Bellows Curve) on the Roland FR-1x

Please Like and Subscribe
In this video I am answering a viewer’s question. The simple version of the question is: How do you save system settings.
While in the parameters list you will hold the set switch until “urt” comes up. At that point you will select register 2 (Yes) and then press the “enter” button. This will save the system settings.
For this video I will be changing Orchestra Touch and the Bellows Curve.

Dear Joe , thanks your clear explanations on the FR-1X .
I was surching how to save the transpose ..1 or 2 up or down in the user program ? Is it possible under the user prog.? Maybe another way? Thanks Joe... Musical greetings from Robert ..

Hi Robert, Thanks for watching my video. That is an interesting question and I believe it will be my next video - thank you! I am going to start the short answer with - the manual is confusing on this point. They talk about transposing with octaves and also keys. That being said, you can change the octaves and save them in the User Programs. This will allow you to "jump" up and down the keyboard with the touch of a button. If you are talking about changing the key (which is what I think you are asking), that is not as easy to do. You can change the key to say "A", then you must save the system setting to keep this change. It is kind of being able to have a "C-trumpet" or a "B flat trumpet". There is a way (not a good way) to change the key with the registers, but I don't think the process is very good. This will be easier to show in the video, which I think will be out sometime this week.

Thank Joe for reacting ...I think many accordeonists have the same problem to transpose while they are playing...Almost every song has a transpose..that's why the question....You doing very well you explanations and presentations congrats...I am looking forward to your next ..
