FR-7b/FR-5b V-Accordion
Solving MIDI buffer problems
(12.3 Bellows TX Resolution)
This parameter allows you to specify how many data
the FR-7b/FR-5b’s bellows may transmit for expression
purposes (see also “Expression” on p. 91). As long as the
external sequencer you work with does not display a
“MIDI buffer overflow” message, you can leave its set-
ting at “High”. If, however, the bellows’ data amount is
too much for the receiving sequencer (because such
data are transmitted on several channels simulta-
neously), select a different setting. In that case, the
amount of data will be reduced. This leads to a coarser
resolution, and maybe even audible steps, but at least,
your sequencer will be able to record the data. If
“Medium” still generates too many data, select “Low”.
“TX” means that this parameter only applies to data
sent by the FR-7b/FR-5b. Its own MIDI buffer is big
enough to receive high-resolution data.
