Backing Keyboard BK-5 OR
15. Menu options
The BK-5 OR’s [MENU] button provides access to the available parameters and functions.
General procedure
1.
Press the [MENU] button (its indicator
lights).
The display changes to:
2.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
the desired function group.
The following function groups are available:
3.
Press the [ENTER/SELECT] button to go to
the display page where you can edit the
parameters of the selected group, or to exe-
cute the selected command.
Internal Lyrics
The BK-5 OR’s display can show the lyrics of Standard
MIDI Files or mp3 songs you load. If such song files con-
tain Lyrics data, the lyrics are always displayed on an
external screen you connect to the BK-5 OR (see “Con-
necting a television set” on p. 19), unless you set the
“External Lyrics” parameter to “Off” (see below).
Sometimes, however, it may be wiser to orient the exter-
nal screen in such a way that the audience can easily
follow the lyrics, which may then mean that you no
longer see what is displayed. If you need to see the lyr-
ics, you can follow them on the BK-5 OR’s internal dis-
play:
1.
Load a song with lyrics data (see p. 38).
2.
Select the “Internal Lyrics” command (see
“General procedure”).
3.
Press the [ENTER/SELECT] button.
Function group Explanation
Internal Lyrics Allows you to activate the display of
lyrics data on the BK-5 OR itself. (Only
for SMF and mp3 files for which there
are lyrics data.)
External Lyrics Allows you to cancel (“Off”) or activate
(“On”) the display of song lyrics on an
external screen.
