7. Playing the BK-5 OR’s real-time parts
Your BK-5 OR contains three real-time parts that can be controlled via MIDI: UP1, UP2 and LWR. Feel free to use only UP1
or to control all three simultaneously. You can assign the desired sounds (or “Tones”) to each of these parts. See the sep-
arate booklet for a list of the available sounds.
Switching the UP2 and LWR parts
on and off
The UP1 part is always active. The UP2 and LWR parts,
however, can be switched on or off.
1.
Press the [UP2] or [LWR] button to switch
the corresponding part (Upper2 or Lower)
on (indicator lights) or off (indicator goes
dark).
If you switch on one of these parts, the cursor on the
main page automatically jumps to the “UP2” or
“LWR” field. If [UP2] and [LWR] are both switched off,
the cursor jumps to the “UP1” field.
Selecting Tones for the real-time
parts
On the BK-5 OR, the sounds you can assign to the real-
time parts are called “Tones”. The BK-5 OR allows you to
assign any of the available Tones to any of the three
real-time parts. Tone selection always applies to the
part (UP1, UP2, or LWR) whose field is currently dis-
played in reverse.
Tones can be selected in two ways:
Using the [UP2] or [LWR] button to select Tones
1.
Press and hold the [UP2] or [LWR] button.
The display now shows a list of Tones where the cur-
rently selected sound is displayed in reverse:
2.
If the Tone you need belongs to another
family, press another Tone button.
3.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
the desired Tone, then press the [ENTER/
SELECT] button to confirm your selection.
4.
Press [EXIT] to leave the Tone selection
page.
NOTE
You can only listen to Tones for the Upper2 or Lower part if
the [UP2] or [LWR] button lights.
NOTE
Tones can also be selected by simply pressing the
[NUMERIC] key and entering their number.
Selecting a Tone on the main page
1.
If the main page is not displayed, press and
hold the [EXIT] button until it appears.
The numbers and names of the Tones assigned to the
three real-time parts are displayed in the lower half
of the display:
The highlighted numeric field refers to the part
whose Tone assignment can be changed. To select a
different part, move the cursor to its numeric field
and press the [ENTER/SELECT] button.
2.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
the desired numeric field, then press the
[ENTER/SELECT] button.
