Backing Module BK-7m Menu options Setting Hall1, Hall2 Plate Delay Meaning These types simulate the reverb of a small (1) or large (2) concert hall and thus sound much “bigger” than the Room types above. This algorithm simulates the acoustics of a concert hall. A delay effect (no reverb). Works a lot like an echo effect and thus repeats the sounds. NOTE The changes you make using the procedure described above can be “burned” into the Music Style song file using the “Freeze Data” command (see p. 81). Doing so will allow you to hear those changes on any sequencer (software) you use. Changes you don’t “freeze” are nevertheless stored when you save the edited Music Style song file—but only the BK-7m can read them. Pan Delay This is a stereo version of the above delay effect. It creates repetitions that alternate between the left and right channels. Chorus Type: Chorus broadens the spatial image of the sound and creates a stereo impression. You can choose from 8 types of chorus. Setting Meaning Instrument To edit the Instrument parameters, use [MENU] button ‰ “Makeup Tools” ‰ “Instrument”. Original Chorus 1~4 Fbk Chorus Flanger ShortDly Short Dly FB The song uses its own (programmed) chorus settings. These are conventional chorus effects that add spaciousness and depth to the sound. This is a chorus with a flanger-like effect and a soft sound. This is an effect that sounds somewhat like a jet airplane taking off and landing. This is a full-fledged delay effect that can be used instead of a chorus or flanger. As you will see, there are a lot of parameters you can program. This is a short delay with many repeats. The display now shows all instruments used by the selected Music Style or SMF song. 1. Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] to select the instrument you want to change, then press the dial. r 76 Reverb Level & Chorus Level: These parameters allow you to modify the output level of the Reverb (or Chorus) processor. Style Volume/Song Volume: This parameter allows you to set the overall volume of the selected Style or song if you think it is too loud/soft. Style Tempo/Song Tempo: Allows you to change the Style’s or song’s tempo (q= 20~250). Transpose: This parameter allows you to transpose all song parts (except the drums) up to 12 semitones (1 octave) up or down. This value is written to the song data and used every time you play back this song. NOTE This parameters is not available for Music Styles. Undo Changes: Select this entry to cancel all “Style/ Song Makeup Tools” settings you have made and to revert to the previously saved version. 2. If you are satisfied with your changes and wish to preserve them, save your Music Style song to the USB memory. See “Saving your new Music Style or song (SMF) version” on p. 81. The display changes to: The [MENU] button’s indicator flashes. 2. Press the [MENU] button to jump to the location where the instrument is used. Playback starts automatically from that point. 3. Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] to select the parameter you wish to edit, then press the dial. NOTE The Style and Song Makeup Tools environments do not support the BK-7m’s SuperNATURAL sounds, which can therefore not be selected.
Backing Module BK-7m r Makeup Tools (Style and SMF) NOTE If you select a Drum Set in step (1) above, the parameter list looks slightly different than for instruments that do not use a Drum Set. “Drum Sets” are special “Tones” that assign different sounds to most keys/note numbers, allowing you (and the BK-7m) to play realistic drum and percussion parts. In the following, “(T)” refers to parameters that are only available for regular instruments (also called “Tones”), while “(D)” refers to parameters that are only available for Drum Sets. The following parameters are available: Families (T) Allows you to select a different Tone family. See page 91 for a list of available Tones and Drum Sets. After selecting a new family, you can press the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial and then rotate it to select a Tone from that family Parameter Explanation Families The BK-7m’s Tones are grouped into 15 families: piano, guitar, bass, strings, etc. Tone (T), Drum (D) Allows you to select a different Tone within the active Tone family. See page 91 for a list of available Tones and Drum Sets. While selecting a Tone, you can press the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial and then rotate it to select a different family. Parameter Tone (T) Drum (D) Mute (T)/Drum Mute (D) Switches the selected instrument off. The corresponding part is no longer played back. (This setting only applies to the selected instrument and thus not necessarily to the entire track.) NOTE In the case of the drums, you can mute two instrument groups (“Drum Mute” and “Perc Mute”, see below) separately. Parameter Mute (T) Drum Mute (D) Solo Switches off all instruments except the selected instrument. Parameter Solo Explanation The number of Tones depends on the selected family. Setting Off, On Setting Off, On Perc Mute (D) Suppresses (or adds) the percussion sounds used by the drum part. Parameter Perc Mute Volume Adjusts the volume of the selected instrument. Negative values decrease the current volume, positive values increase it. (This is a relative setting that is added to, or subtracted from, the original setting.) Parameter Value Off, On Setting Volume -127~0~+127 Reverb Use this parameter to set the reverb send level. Negative values decrease the current reverb send level, positive values increase it. (This is a relative setting that is added to, or subtracted from, the original setting.) Parameter Setting Reverb -127~0~+127 Chorus Use this parameter to set the chorus send level. Negative values decrease the current chorus send level, positive values increase it. (This is a relative setting that is added to, or subtracted from, the original setting.) Parameter Setting Chorus -127~0~+127 Panpot Use this parameter to change the stereo placement of the selected instrument. “0” means “no change”, negative (–) values shift the instrument towards the left and positive (+) values shift it towards the right. Parameter Setting Panpot -127~0~+127 NOTE In the case of Drum Sets, this setting applies to all drum/ percussion instruments. There is also a parameter that can be set for specific drum instruments. See page 80. Octave (T) Use this parameter to transpose the selected instrument up or down by up to 4 octaves. Parameter Setting Octave -4~0~+4 Velocity This parameter allows you to modify the velocity range of the instrument in question. “0” means that the recorded velocity values are left untouched, neg- 77
