Backing Module BK-7m Music Style functions ■ ENDING ■ AUTO FILL IN This button allows you to end your songs with a suitable closing section if you don’t want to simply stop Music Style playback. The behavior of the Ending pattern depends on when you press the [ENDING] button: [ENDING] Pressed before starting Music Style playback Pressed during Music Style playback Behavior The indicator lights. When you start Music Style playback, the Arranger plays a musical ending. At the end of the phrase, playback stops. The indicator flashes to signal that the ENDING pattern will begin on the next downbeat. When the ending is finished, Music Style playback stops. There are four different ENDING patterns, that can be selected using the VARIATION [1], [2], [3] and [4] buttons. Again, the VARIATION buttons determine the complexity of the arrangement. When this button lights, the BK-7m plays a transition before switching to the newly selected VARIATION pattern. Example: if the VARIATION [1] pattern is running, pressing the [4] button will not switch to that pattern right away—the BK-7m first plays a fill-in to announce the new song section. NOTE The duration of the fill-ins (transitions) can be halved if you like. See “Fill In Half Bar” on p. 60. Selecting Music Styles 1. Press a RHYTHM FAMILY button to select the Music Style family. The indicator of the button you press lights and the display shows a list of the Music Styles that belong to this family: ■ BASS INV In the example shown above, we pressed the [LIVE BAND] button. 2. Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select the desired Music Style, then press the dial to confirm your selection. r 32 This button is used to switch the “Bass Inversion” function on or off. While the button is dark, the Music Style’s bass part always plays the fundamental of your notes or chords. Example: if you play a chord consisting of the notes C, E and G (which is recognized as a C major chord), the bass part plays a C. If the [BASS INV] button lights, the Music Styles bass part uses the lowest notes of the chords you play. Example: if you play a chord consisting of the notes E, G and C (still a C major chord), the bass part plays an E. This function therefore gives you more artistic licence.
Backing Module BK-7m r Playing back Music Styles Playing back Music Styles Let us now take a closer look at the interactive aspects of the BK-7m’s Music Styles and at how to use them. 1. Connect your MIDI controller (see p. 16). If necessary, follow the instructions of the “Wizard Connection” function (see p. 22). 2. Set the BK-7m’s [VOLUME] knob to a reasonable level (about 1/4). The main page displays the name of the last chord the BK-7m recognized: 7. Press the [START/STOP] button to start Music Style playback. VOLUME 3. Set the [BALANCE] knob to the center position. BALANCE 4. Press the [INTRO] button (it lights) to start Music Style playback with an introduction. The [START/STOP] indicator lights and the BK-7m starts playing back the introductory phrase. 8. Play different chords on your MIDI controller and listen to the effect this has on the Music Style. 9. Switch on the [AUTO FILL IN] button (it lights). This means that when you select a different VARIA- TION pattern, the BK-7m will play a transition (fill-in) before switching to the new pattern. 10. Press a VARIATION [1], [2], [3] or [4] button to select a more complex or a simpler accompaniment. 5. Press the VARIATION [1], [2], [3] or [4] button to select the complexity of the INTRO pattern. 6. Play a chord on your MIDI controller. See “‘Wizard Connection’ MIDI channel settings” on p. 26 for the MIDI channels assigned to the BK-7m’s NTA parts. These parts analyze the chords that are used to transpose the Music Style in real time. • If you press it before the last beat of the current measure, the fill-in starts immediately and lasts until the end of the current measure, then the newly selected VARIATION pattern is played back. • If you press the desired VARIATION button on the last beat of a bar, the fill-in starts at the next downbeat and lasts an entire bar. Only then will the BK-7m switch to the newly selected VARIATION pattern. 11. If necessary, you can change the Music Style’s tempo: 33
