Backing Keyboard BK-5 OR
•“Rename” function (see p. 50).
Save Global
This function allows you to save all “Global” parameter
settings to ensure that they are loaded automatically
each time you switch the BK-5 OR on.
You can select this function using [MENU] button ‰
“Global” ‰ “Save Global”.
1.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
“YES”, then press the [ENTER/SELECT] but-
ton to define the current settings as the
default state.
The display shows a confirmation message.
If you don’t want to define the current “Global” set-
tings as the default state, rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE]
dial to select “NO”, then press the [ENTER/SELECT]
button. The BK-5 OR then returns to the “Perfor-
mance Edit” page.

One Touch Edit
See “Using the ‘One Touch’ function” on p. 33.
Mastering Tools
The BK-5 OR contains an effects processor that applies
to all real-time, rhythm and SMF song parts.
This processor is called “Mastering Tools”, because it
allows you to perfect the signal mix to adapt it to the
sound system you are using.
The parameters discussed here can be selected using
[MENU] button ‰ “Mastering Tools”.
Compressor
This multi-band compressor/limiter allows you to pro-
cess three frequency ranges separately. A compressor
reduces high levels (peaks) and boosts low levels,
smoothing out fluctuations in volume.
To edit the Compressor parameters, use [MENU] button
‰ “Mastering Tools” ‰ “Compressor”.
1.
Select a keyboard part, an SMF song or a
rhythm and start playback.
2.
Set the “Switch” parameter to “On” to acti-
vate the compressor.
The compressor is now active. (Select “Off” to switch
the compressor back off.)
3.
Use the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select the
“Preset” parameter, then press the [ENTER/
SELECT] button.
