Great Instrument, I am using it also very often.
It sure is!
@@JohnCouplandguitar perhaps you are interested to visit my channel Organ Sounds. Please click on the Keys picture. I often use the BK-7M for backing tracks.
Sto pilotando BK-7m con Roland PRO-E (arranger).
Pro-E arranger é completo di una tastiera mentre BK-7m no.
Ho collegato OUT della PRO-E a IN di BK7.
Ho messo lo stesso canale del SYNC START e lo stesso canale del DRUM (ch 10).
Ho messo in OFF gli accompagnamenti della PRO-E, per cui quando pigo un tasto parte la batteria di BK7.
Se però pigio un accordo sulla PRO-E, parte la batteria del BK-7m, ma non partono gli accompagnamenti.
Come posso risolvere il problema?
Hi John, I hope you are well! Six months ago you helped me with a question about the Roland BK7m on another channel. I thank you from the heart!
I am programming my Bk7m with 8 measures in each variation, with the music harmonies all ready, so that I can go from Vairar 1 to 4 via footswit (because I play the guitar), but no matter what tone I set, the tempo 1 of the first measure of each variation, it always performs in C (standard chord that remains in the BK7m's memory). I was unable to solve this problem. If I disable the standard chord, I am out of harmony. Could you give your opinion?
Hi Leno, No i cannot think of any way around that. I no longer have the BK-7m as, in common with most of the gear on this channel, I do not keep anything all that long.

Ok John, I still thank you for responding. Cheers!
Hi John, I bought one of these a few months ago and use it with an Epiphone 339 Ultra guitar, a Roland GK3 pickup and a Roland GI10 controller. It takes a bit of time to set it up properly but the sounds from this thing are just amazing. It would be perfect for a "One Man Band" operation. A friend of mine uses one with a Casio midi guitar in cabaret. I haven't yet taken it to The Wheatsheaf but....
I feel I have just skimmed the surface of its capabilities but it is an improvement on my past efforts. During Glasgow's Garden Festival I wired a set of bass pedals that I had salvaged off an old Farfisa organ to a Yamaha PSR-70 keyboard. If I set the PSR to fingered chord I could get bass and drums while I played my guitar. Somewhat clumsy but it worked.
@@JohnCouplandguitar Did you just do it or did the festival organisers know you were coming? ;-)
I had a rather surreal mental image of a surreptitious Scot sneaking about in the bushes with various Heath-Robinson type gadgets.
Sorry - I must stop smoking this stuff!
I was there officially on behalf of the Church of Scotland. The organisers were kind enough to allocate me an hour in the replica Roman Arena. A nice thought.
Hi @UC07MnWDDnmKkawYUUty0Zaw, I'm from Brazil and I used the translator to send you this message. My Bk7m after a short time connected via USB or via MID, the connection drops and I have to redo the wizard. Already checked the cables and are ok. Could you suggest something to solve this? Know a link where I can get information? Thanks.
Your MIDI cable may have a weak spot so a new cable is worth trying. If the MIDI plug has ever been hit then that could cause the circuit board to fracture. Last of all a drop in the power supply could cause the fault you are describing. Hope that helps.
@@JohnCouplandguitar Thank you so much for responding so quickly. Musician is that, no matter the nationality, we understand why we speak the language of music. Thanks !!!
I'm piloting BK-7m with Roland PRO-E (arranger).
Pro-E arranger comes complete with a keyboard while BK-7m does not.
I connected OUT of the PRO-E to IN of BK7.
I put the same channel as the SYNC START and the same channel as the DRUM (ch 10).
I have turned OFF the accompaniments of the PRO-E, so when I press a key the BK7 drums start.
However, if you strike a chord on the PRO-E, the drums of the BK-7m will start, but the accompaniments will not start.
How can I solve the problem?
Perhaps the MIDI message to turn off the PRO's accompaniments is being transmitted to the BK? In that case undo the action and turn the PRO's acc volume down, Other things to try:- Can both units be set to OMNI or would setting both to Ch1 work? Try splitting the Pro's keyboard?
@@JohnCouplandguitar PRO-E accompaniments are OFF. The NOTE TO ARRANGER setting is set to channel 1 on both BK7 and PRO-E. But when I play a chord on the PRO-E, the BK plays the SYNC of the drums and the C major chord. If I change agreement on PRO-E, the BK does not change it.
I really like this unit's compact size. My question is: Can I get the same effects from an "arranger keyboard "? The jeybiard arrangers seem easier to find used, but of course are longer and need a longer stand or table. Any ideas?
The BK-3,5 & 7 all do more or less the same thing. These come up s/h from time to time.
Vorrei ascoltare l accompagnamento tra dizionario valzer marce ecc
10:30 I would play this song as ballad.
By the way, I use a Ketron SD90 (module version of the SD 9 keyboard) with a Yamaha Tyros 3 (what plays the Ketron drums) and a Roland Jupiter 50 (as piano) and perform Worship music with this.
Does it let you create your own loops for custom arrangements.
No
Great and versatile module John and some nice keyboard playing. I could see myself using this in Church. Only thing is that it seems to be discontinued. Just wondering where you got yours from? Thanks
Thanks Jez, I bought it last year second hand.
@@JohnCouplandguitar Thanks John. I will keep my eyes peeled on Ebay :)
An ad just popped up as I was drooling over guitars on Gumtree. Dawson's music seem to have one.
@@JohnCouplandguitar Thanks John, good spot!
When playing rhythms, can you take the bass part out?
You may have to go into Preferences and mute the bass part there. If you then save that as either your default or just as a simple pre-set then you will be able to change rhythms without having to go through all that.
@@JohnCouplandguitar I looked in the manual and do not see a preferences. Is it in another section?
@@JC-td4gg I don't have a BK7 to hand at the moment to check so can any others reading this offer any advice?
Not bad, you could be the next John Shuttleworth!
Haha - Graham Fellows would be very flattered!
Very expensive module, Kawai ACR 20 is an option cheap ,good and versatile.
Good to know.
