Roland FR-7 Bass Button Clicks

[TurboUK]

Hi guys, my first post on here so go easy on me!

I have had the original Roland FR-7 since 2004. I've not been one to experiment with the different sounds and settings, I've just used the presents that work for styles I play.

I am starting to record into the PC through the jacks out into an interface then into the PC. The bass button taps are switched on and very prominent. I have figured out how to locate and turn them off, however I've no idea how to save it, or even better turn them off on a global setting so they are off permanently on all sounds and settings, and then be able to save that. I have no use for the tap sounds to be heard.

At the moment If I turn it off it's only off for that one setting, and if I switch settings and come back to that setting or switch the Roland off and on again, it comes back on. So I know I am not saving the change.

Any help would be greatly appreciated on this one. Ideally be able to turn on the Bass Buttons tap sounds for good across all sounds, settings and presets permanently.

Many thanks,

Andy

Saving your changes (manual approach)
(1) After making the required changes, press and hold the [MENU÷WRITE] button.
The display now shows a page similar to the following:
Function Master Tune Scale Tune
System MIDI
Set Explanation
The “1.1 Master Tune” settings are saved.
The “1.3 Scale” and “1.4 Scale Edit” settings are saved.
The “10. System parameters” are saved. The “Global MIDI parameters” are saved.
Allows you to save Sets (either a specific one or all). Selecting this option will check all boxes that belong to the “Set” group (Common, Treble, Bass, Free Bass, Orch, Orch Bass, OrchChd, OrchFBs).
Common Treble
The “9. Set Common parameters” are saved.
Allows you to save the settings of the current treble register. You can select a different destination memory (register) if you like.
Bass
Allows you to save the settings of the current bass register. You can select a different destination memory (register) if you like.
Free Bass
Allows you to save the settings of the current Free Bass register. You can select a different destination memory (register) if you like.
Orch
Allows you to save the settings of the current ORCHESTRA register memory (remember that there are two memories per register). You can select a different destination memory and/or register if you like.
Orch Bass
(2) Rotate the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the parameters you want to save.
The FR-7x’s “WRITE” page goes from the generic (“All Param”) to the specific (only one register).
Function All Param. Explanation
All settings (all Sets, all Global settings, all registers) are saved. Selecting this option will check all other boxes of the “WRITE” list. “To xx” settings you may have made, however, remain as they are.
