Anyone familiar enough with the FR 18 to know which tablature is tuned to ADG. I just started experimenting with It and I play by ear. Your help is appreciated. . . .Pilot
 
Sounds like a good, technical question but I haved no idea what you're asking. Can you elucidate. :?
 
Roland sets their key patterns called tablatures for regions eg. Italy, Finland, Scottish, etc. etc. They load 12 into their database and can be selected by using a designated procedures. They do not state keys as other accordians normally do eg. ADG, GCF etc. Tab. 12 is Scottish tuned: BCC#

Your participation is appreciated. Thanks. . . .Pilot
 
Can't you do this by going to each setting on the Roland and playing the notes and noting down the key bindings. Then you would be a service to the community when you publish the results.
 
simple way is to try them all and the 3rd button on each row (pushing bellows) will give the keynote for that row ( use guitar tuner) . ADG is specifically English so may not be built in but I understand the individual buittons can be set to whatever is required

The following may repeat much of the previous post but expressed a bit differently.
I think you will find that what you are calling Tablature, Roland call "Musette Detune."
Your list goes from least to most tremolo cf my reference above page 41.
Tablature refers to the keyboard layout eg GCF GCAcc
This bit is a guess:
Tab 12 is CFBb and plays in the key of C (see Appendix page 59) If you then select to play in the key of A, you will have an ADG layout
nb Row 1: 4th button start.
 
Thank you Dunlustin. That helps. Music theory is not one of my strengths though I do play fairly well by ear.. . . .Pilot
Thanks for the other responses also!
