Setting up V-Accordion r 15 Connections The FR-7 can be used without any connections to either an amplification system or the FBC-7 power supply/battery charger unit. An FR-5 without an optional battery needs to be connected to the supplied FBC-7, however.
Setting up | Switching the power on and of f 16 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Switching the power on and off The power-on procedure depends on whether you are using a battery or the FBC-7 Foot Pedal/DC Power/ Bat- tery Charger Unit. Note: Only use the battery that either came with your FR-7 or that you purchased from your Roland dealer.
Listening to the demo songs V-Accordion r 17 (6) Press the FR-7/FR-5’s [POWER] button (it lights) to switch it on. The icon in the display means that the FR-7/FR-5 is powered by the FBC-7. (7) Switch on the receiving audio device. (8) Start playing (see “First steps” on page 18).
Setting up | First steps 18 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion First steps The sections of your FR-7/FR-5 Before showing you how to use the FR-7/FR-5, let’s briefly look at the various “sections” of your instrument, as that will help you understand how your V-Accordion works.
Selecting Easy or Full mode V-Accordion r 19 Selecting Easy or Full mode At first, the FR-7/FR-5 is configured to start up in “Easy” mode. In that mode, only the main parameters can be selected. It has the advantage that you do not feel overwhelmed by the FR-7/FR-5’s possibilities.
Setting up | First steps 20 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion About the Main page You may have realized by now that, with the exception of the display as well as the additional buttons and knobs, the FR-7/FR-5 looks like a conventional accordion. The display contains important clues about the settings that are currently in effect.
T ouring the FR-7/FR- 5’ s sections V-Accordion r 21 Touring the FR-7/FR-5’s sections It’s time we put the FR-7/FR-5 through its paces, because that’s what you purchased it for. We’ll work section by section. Treble section The Treble section can be played using the 41-key “piano” key- board.
Setting up | T ouring the FR- 7/FR-5 ’ s sections 22 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion (6) Use the SET [√][®] buttons to select another Set and again play a few notes. The number of the selected Set is shown in the upper right corner of the display. Note that you can also use the FBC-7’s SET footswitches to select Sets.
Bass section V-Accordion r 23 Bass section The Bass section can be played via the “Stradella” but- tons. The buttons in this section allow you to play both bass notes and chords. The chords use the (sound) register selected for the Bass section – hence the name of this section.
Setting up | T ouring the FR- 7/FR-5 ’ s sections 24 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The number of the selected Set is shown in the upper right corner of the display.
Using the orchestral sounds V-Accordion r 25 Using the orchestral sounds Your FR-7/FR-5 also contains PCM sounds (samples) of various instruments that are not related to accordion sounds. Those sounds allow you to expand your musical endeavours without using external MIDI devices.
Setting up | Using the orchestral sounds 26 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The display briefly confirms your selection and shows both the name of the sound you selected and the number of the register you pressed: (3) Play a few notes on the Treble keyboard. The Treble keyboard is velocity sensitive .
Orchestral sounds for the Treble section V-Accordion r 27 LOW [11] : This is the opposite of HIGH and can be used in situations where the melody (or counter-mel- ody) lies above the notes you wish to hold. (4) While holding down the [ORCHESTRA] register, press [11] , [12] , [13] or [14] to select the desired mode.
Setting up | Using the orchestral sounds 28 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion ■ Switching off the Orchestra part To return to a state where only the Treble accordion section sounds: (10) Press the [CANCEL] register. Now, the FR-7/FR-5 is a normal accordion again.
Orchestral sounds for the Chord section V-Accordion r 29 Orchestral sounds for the Chord section The Orchestra Chord part can replace the accordion sound played by the chord rows of the bass keyboard. There are no clever modes (DUAL, SOLO, etc.) here.
Setting up | Using the orchestral sounds 30 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion (2) Simultaneously press the three registers in the moddle. The display now briefly responds with: (3) Use the Bass registers to select the desired sound. Note: The dynamics of sounds marked with an asterisk (*) can only be controlled by bellows movements.
Other practical functions V-Accordion r 31 Other practical functions Let us now have a look at the first “purely electronic” functions of your FR-7/FR-5.
Setting up | Other practical functions 32 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion (1) While the Main page is displayed, press the [UP] button twice. (2) Use the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the a differ- ent tuning for the Treble reeds.
V olume-related functions V-Accordion r 33 (1) While the Main page is displayed, press the [UP] button four times. (2) Press the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select either “Valve Level” or “Button Level”, depending on which parameter you want to set.
About the FBC- 7 | About the FBC-7 34 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Your FR-7/FR-5 comes with an FBC-7 footswitch unit that doubles as power supply for your V-Accordion and also allows you to recharge a battery. If you purchased an FR-5, you must connect it to the FBC-7 (or purchase an optional battery).
Charging the battery V-Accordion r 35 The reason why the Treble and Bass sections do not respond to this pedal is that you can control their vol- ume via the strength with which you press and pull the bellows (like on any accordion).
About the FBC- 7 | Charging the battery 36 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion (4) Press the [BATTERY¥CHARGER] button on the FBC-7. The [BATTERY¥CHARGER] button now lights red. (5) Wait until the [BATTERY¥CHARGER] button lights green, then switch off the FBC-7 and disconnect the 19-pin cable from both the FBC-7 and the FR-7/FR-5.
If the battery fails to last 8 hours (or slightly less) V-Accordion r 37 (8) Connect the battery’s cable to the charger’s socket. (9) Slide the battery into the holder on the FBC-7. (10) Connect the FBC-7 to a suitable wall outlet. (11) Switch on the FBC-7 by pressing its [POWER¥ON] button (its red POWER ON indicator lights).
Editing sounds | Editing sounds 38 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Almost all sound aspects of your FR-7/FR-5 can be changed (“edited”) to your liking. On p. 31 we already showed you how to quickly edit the most important aspects of a sound. All changes you make are temporary.

5. ORC BASS EDIT parameters V-Accordion r 55 5. ORC BASS EDIT parameters The parameters of the ORC.BASS EDIT group allow you to edit the Orchestra Bass section. See page 28 for details about the Orchestra Bass section. See pages 38 and 40 for how to select and adjust the parameters.
Editing sounds | 5. ORC BASS EDIT parameters 56 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion on the button keyboard, it will be sounded one octave above the corresponding pitch – and sound natural. Here is an example: The Orchestra Bass sound therefore sometimes changes octaves.
6. ORCH. EDIT parameters V-Accordion r 57 6. ORCH. EDIT parameters The parameters of the ORCH. EDIT group apply to the Treble Orchestra section. See page 25 for details about the Orchestra section. You may remember that it contains 22 sounds (because some registers provide access to an “A” and a “B” sound).
Editing sounds | 6. ORCH. EDIT parameters 58 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion 6.3 Bellows Detune (Off, Low, Standard, High, Default setting: Standard) This parameter allows you to specify how strongly the orchestral sound’s pitch should be influ- enced by opening and closing the bellows faster than usual.
7. ORC CHD EDIT parameters V-Accordion r 59 7. ORC CHD EDIT parameters The parameters of the ORC CHORD EDIT group apply to the chord button rows of the Bass section. As stated earlier, the FR-7/FR-5 allows you to play and accordion sound with the bass rows and an orchestral sound with the chord rows of the bass keyboard (and vice versa).
Editing sounds | 7. ORC CHD EDIT parameters 60 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion 7.2 Reverb Send, 7.3 Chorus Send, 7.4 Delay Send (0~127 for all three) Use these parameters to set the Reverb, Chorus or Delay send level (how much effect should be applied to the Orchestra Chord section).
8. ORC FBS EDIT parameters V-Accordion r 61 8. ORC FBS EDIT parameters The parameters of the ORC FBS EDIT group apply to the Bass buttons while Free Bass mode is active. See page 29 for details about the Orchestra Free Bass section. This section is not available while Bass mode is active.
Editing sounds | 8. ORC FBS EDIT parameters 62 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The effects themselves can be edited on separate pages (see p. 64). 8.5 Orc FreeBs MIDI TX This page contains a series of MIDI parameters for the Orches- tra section you need to set one by one.
9. SET COMMON parameters V-Accordion r 63 9. SET COMMON parameters The SET COMMON group contains parameters that apply to all sections, but only within the framework of the currently selected Set, most notably the parameters that specify the sound/character of the Reverb, Chorus and Delay effects.
Editing sounds | 9. SET COMMON parameters 64 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The available options are: Note: Seeing that a delay effect usually only works for one part, we recommend using the dedicated Delay processor for echo effects. That way, the reverb effect can be used to “deepen” the sound field.
9.4 Chorus Parameters V-Accordion r 65 Note: Seeing that a delay effect usually only works for one part, we recommend using the dedicated Delay processor for echo effects.
Editing sounds | 9. SET COMMON parameters 66 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion 9.5 Delay Macro Type A delay effect creates echoes. It can also broaden a sound by adding a slightly delayed copy to the original sound (a tech- nique often used for rock-’n’- roll songs and in Karaoke bars).
9.7 Name V-Accordion r 67 9.7 Name This function allows you to name the selected Set (8 char- acters). It would be a good idea to use the name of the instru- ment you “built” using the TRE- BLE, BASS, FREE BASS, etc., group parameters – or the name of the Song you wish to use this Set for.
Editing sounds | 10. SYSTEM parameters 68 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion 10.1 LCD Contrast (1~7, Default setting: 5) The information in the LCD display may be difficult to view after turning on your FR-7/FR-5 or after extended use. Your view- ing angle and the current lighting conditions can also affect the appearance of the display.
10.5 Bass & Chord Mode V-Accordion r 69 ■ Orch Bs Sust— The footswitch can be used to hold the orchestral notes of the Bass section that are transmitted via MIDI. This is for MIDI control only. ■ OrchFB Sust— The footswitch can be used to hold the orchestral notes of the Free Bass section that are transmit- ted via MIDI.
Editing sounds | 10. SYSTEM parameters 70 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion 10.6 Free Bass Mode (Default setting: Minor 3rd) This parameter allows you to choose the note system used in Free Bass mode. We already men- tioned that there are a vast number of accordion varieties.
10.8 Auto Power OFF V-Accordion r 71 10.8 Auto Power OFF (Disabled, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, Default setting: 10 min) This parameter allows you to specify how long the FR-7/FR-5 should wait before deciding that you won’t be using it for a while.
Editing sounds | 10. SYSTEM parameters 72 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Note: See p. 35 for how to recharge the battery. 10.9 Startup This page contains several parameters that allow you to specify what the FR-7/FR-5 should do when you switch it on.

MIDI functions V-Accordion r 79 Your FR-7/FR-5 also transmits and receives MIDI data. In this chapter we’ll look at what MIDI is and does and which MIDI functions are available on the FR-7/FR-5.
MIDI functions | About MIDI 80 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The FR-7/FR-5’s sections use the following MIDI chan- nels: As you see, there are separate channels for the chord and bass buttons, even though they both belong to the Bass section. That separation may look distracting at first, but it actually makes sense.
Final note regarding sequencers V-Accordion r 81 Roland dealer for details. And finally, you may need to install applications called “drivers” on your computer to ensure that it can talk and listen to the MIDI interface.
MIDI functions | Global MIDI parameters 82 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion (1) Press and hold the [EXIT÷JUMP] button until the display looks as follows: (2) Press register [12] to specify the function group. The MIDI channels can be set via a parameter of the “MIDI” group, which is why you need to select that group.
Sending program change messages when necessary V-Accordion r 83 (1) Press and hold the [EXIT÷JUMP] button until the display looks as follows: (2) Press register [12] to specify the function group. The “Ext. Seq. Playback” parameters can be set via a parameter of the “MIDI” group, which is why you need to select that group.
MIDI functions | Global MIDI parameters 84 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The [10] register acts as “0” here. To enter “502”, for example, press registers [5] , [10] , and [2] . (5) If necessary, press the [EXIT÷JUMP] button to erase the last entry you made.
Solving MIDI buffer problems V-Accordion r 85 Solving MIDI buffer problems (12.3 Bellows TX Resolution) This parameter allows you to specify how many data the FR-7/FR-5’s bellows may transmit for expression purposes (see also “Expression” on p. 88).
MIDI functions | MIDI parameters for the various sections/parts 86 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion MIDI parameters for the various sections/parts The MIDI parameters discussed below belong to separate groups and are saved for the corresponding sections.
Parameters V-Accordion r 87 ■ Note (On, Off, Default setting: On) The MIDI standard translates almost all actions performed on a musical instrument into commands that can be sent to another instrument. The result of such a transmission is that your actions are either recorded by a sequencer or faithfully replicated by the receiving instrument.
MIDI functions | MIDI parameters for the various sections/parts 88 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Note: When you set the “12.2 Ext. Seq. Playback” parameter to “On”, the FR-7/FR-5’s registers no longer transmit the sound selection clusters you have programmed here.
Archiving your settings via MIDI (Bulk Dump) V-Accordion r 89 ■ AfterT (only for the Treble and Orchestra sections) The Treble keyboard also generates aftertouch mes- sages. Aftertouch is usually used for temporary changes to a sound’s volume, timbre or pitch (this needs to be set on the receiving instrument).
MIDI functions | Archiving your settings via MIDI (Bulk Dump) 90 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion The display now responds with: Press [EXIT÷JUMP] if you do not want to transmit your settings after all. (11) Wait until the following message appears, then stop recording on your sequencer.
Sending Bulk data (back) to the FR- 7/FR-5 V-Accordion r 91 Press [EXIT÷JUMP] to return to the Main page, reduce the speed at which the data are transmitted by your sequencer, and try again. If that does not help, check the data file you are transmitting.
Miscellaneous functions | Miscellaneous functions 92 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Saving settings using the WRITE function All WRITE functions are discussed where it makes sense to mention them. That’s why we’ll stick to some general remarks here. 8. Miscellaneous functions Rotate [DATA÷ENTER] to select a register .
Saving settings using the WRITE function V-Accordion r 93 (1) Press and hold the [MENU÷WRITE] button until the following page appears: Sections whose settings you changed without saving them are flagged with an “EDIT” message. Note: If there is no “EDIT” message, there is nothing that needs to be saved.
Miscellaneous functions | Restoring the factory defaults 94 r FR-7/FR-5 V-Accordion Restoring the factory defaults You can reset the FR-7/FR-5 to its factory settings, which means that your own Sets and Global settings are replaced by the settings the FR-7/FR-5 contained when you first got it.
T roubleshooting V-Accordion r 95 Troubleshooting This section provides an overview of points to check and actions to take when the FR-7/FR-5 does not function as you expect. Feel free to contact your Roland dealer if your issue remains unsolved after reading through this section.
