Music in expansion in compact dimension
The FR-3x is the perfect fusion of traditional accordion performance and modern digital functionality.
Imagine a world-class lineup of accordions and orchestral instruments in one convenient instrument, all instantly selectable and controllable.
With new bellows pressure-sensing circuitry, the FR-3x provides faster response and higher sensitivity and precision, plus detection of the bellows opening and closing.
In addition, the new bellows resistance regulator lets you adjust the bellows\' inertia for the ultimate in comfort and playing feel. The USB host capability allows you to customize the onboard orchestra and
accordion sounds, to save/load user program data, and to manage MP3s and wave-file playback.

Sophisticated bellows response
The FR-3x boasts faster response and higher sensitivity and precision, plus detection of the bellows opening and closing. In addition, the new bellows-resistance regulator lets you adjust the bellows\' inertia for the ultimate in comfort and playing feel.
Super realistic accordion simulations
The FR-3x is loaded with great accordion sounds. You can switch instantly from an Italian jazz accordion, for example, to German folk, French musette, or Russian bajan without changing your technique.
In addition, orchestral sounds are onboard the FR-3x as well as a Virtual Tone Wheel generator, which lets you enjoy authentic organ sounds with bellows pressure control. You can even play percussion sounds with your left hand using the bass and chord sections.
Stand-alone electronic instrument
Though the FR-3x is a fully electronic instrument, you don\'t need to connect it to an amplifier in order to produce sounds. Its internal amplification is ideal for small venues, restaurants, and so on. To enhance the cable-free convenience even more, you can power the FR-3x from ten commercially available rechargeable Ni-MH batteries so you don\'t need to connect it to a wall outlet.
Save your settings to a USB storage device
You can save your settings by connecting an optional USB memory to the FR-3x\'s USB port. Also, the USB host allows you to customize orchestra and accordion sounds and to save the user program data and MP3/Wave playback tracks.
Superb performance flexibility
If you venture beyond the internal sounds, the FR-3x lets you control external MIDI-compatible instruments. The Treble keyboard and chord/bass buttons are velocity-sensitive, while the bellows controller provides more articulation possibilities than any other MIDI keyboard, MIDI wind instrument, etc.
Also available in an exclusive, special edition
Lightweight, compact, and equipped with the same features as the standard FR-3x, the white version looks gorgeous, with a beautifully decorated bellows and genuine leather/Alcantara(R) straps.
