Hello.

Can someone explain what R. Base is?
Chord seems to tie in with this also.

If I have the APC ON but no rhythm is playing, and LEFT is OFF. I can hear the R. Base and the Chord Sound when I hold down a chord on the left split side. I can change these sounds going to the SOUND> PART SETTING and scroll to the very end, or use MIXER.

When the rhythm is playing these sounds cancel out and the APC setting takes over... Kinda confused on what the concept is and when to use it.

it's just a throwback to 2 manual and pedal organs - you can simulate the same thing.

Hi Alex and thanks for the answer.

Am I understanding you correctly, the left split would be the lower keyboard of the organ, the right split is the upper keyboard and the R. Base would be the pedals?

I find having the base and chord sound as a default setting annoying. If I am playing without rhythm?style, with strings in the left and a violin on the right the bass and chord sound are not wanted. Other than going to to sound setting and saving in the regs, is there something else I can do to remove the default setting?
Thanks, John C.

yes, basically a historical decision for the people who moved over from organs.

John, zero the sliders in custom panel. After you switch on press Custom, from then on all your settings and future panel saves needn't have root bass and chord.

Thank You Technicsplayer

you're welcome. For what it's worth I think it's out of date too as a default, but if you don't want it just switch apc off or left conductor on without rhythm. A lot of church players like it.

Ya did it again, thank you Technicsplayer.

John C.

you're welcome

Hi Technicsplayer. I also don't like that base chord. I didn't understand what you meant when you said zero the sliders in custom panel etc etc. I am very new to this keyboard, and need things spelt out. I understood about putting the APC off and using a left voice. Could you help, Jess

root bass and chord can be accessed in the mixer or in part setting:
Press Program Menus.
Press Sound in the screen.
Two choices:
Press Part Setting, then at top right of screen scroll along the parts till right at the end you get to R.BASS and CHORD.
In the screen you can take the volume box down to 0.
Other choice:
Press Mixer.
Press Other Parts/Tr button under the screen bottom left twice.
The sliders will include a R.BA and CHRD, zero these.
Incidentally you can change the voices just like the other parts if that is what you want.

you can save this in a panel memory as normal but it is more intelligent to save a personal starting registration in the custom panel:

Press Customise.
Press Custom Panel Mode in the screen.
Choose All Panel.
Press OK in the screen.
Exit out and save your setup in the same way you save panel memories by holding the middle SET button and pressing the Custom Panel button instead of a numbered button.

Now every time you switch on the keyboard press the Custom button. The root bass and chord sounds will be gone and you can save any other personal preferences like footswitch settings, split points, key sensitivities etc etc etc which will then be saved in any panel memories you save from then on without having to re-create each setting. This is just faster than loading a personal start up file, even from SD card. There are also filters to prevent your personal settings being changed when loading someone else's files but that is another story

Hi Technicsplayer, I am very grateful to you for going into such detail regarding this. That is exactly the result I wanted. Is there somewhere on the web where there is tutorials on the KN7000? Many thanks, Jess
