Matrix 3064

RIGHT HAND:
64 notes from E1 to C#8
– Register 16 with 64 note extension from E1 to G6
– Chamber 8 register with 64 note extension from E2 to G7
– Chamber 8′ register with 64 note extension from E2 to G7
– Register 4 with 58 note extension from E3 to C#8 These 4 voices develop the 15 traditional registers of the classical accordion:
| 16 | 16+8 | 16+8+8′ | 16+8+4 | 16+8′ | 16+8′ | 16+8’+4 | 16+8+8’+4 | 8+8’+4 | 8’+4 | 8+8′ | 8+4 | 8′ | 8 | 8 | 4 | Unlike other accordions, in Matrix it is possible to add registers in union by taking them from the reeds arranged in the reed blocks of the left manual: – 16′ register with 64 notes extension from E1 to G6 – 8′ register with 64 notes extension from E2 to G7 – 4′ register with 58 notes extension from E3 to C#8 – 2nd register with 46 notes extension from E4 to C#8 – 5th+ register with extension of 51 notes from B3 to C#8 – 5th register – with extension of 63 notes from B2 to C#8 – 3rd register with extension of 44 notes from F#4 to C#8 Hundreds of new combinations of unusual accordion sounds are possible thanks to the connections, programmable on the accordion in 60 registers divided into 4 banks of 15. It is also possible to split the keyboard into two parts that have two different registers (splits). For this it is necessary to create a register containing at least one voice of the right hand and at least one of the left hand. The split point can be made in any key of the right hand. LEFT HAND VERSION E 96:
59 notes from E1 to C#8
3 voices 8,8,2
– Record 8 with 59 note extension from E1 to D6
– Record 8 with 59 note extension from E1 to D6
– Record 2 with 58 note extension from E3 to C#8 These 3 voices can be mixed with each other as well as with the right hand. We have at our disposal 4 banks of 14 registers each (7 for standard bass and 7 for free bass), making a total of 28 standard bass registers and 28 free bass registers. Since it is possible to assign the desired note(s) or chord(s) to each individual key of the left hand manual, it is easy to see that we can program any number of registers and standard and free bass systems we want: chromatic free basses with the system C I, C III, for V°, standard basses with the lowest note starting from E or G, from A and also from C etc. As well as, the possibility of inventing new systems or solutions. The valves that expel the sound of the left hand reeds, unlike the mechanical ones of the right hand, are electronically controlled. If we press the button lightly we will get the minimum volume of the reed sound, while if we press it harder we will get the maximum volume, all of which can also be managed by pressing the bellows. Unlike a normal accordion where this minimum volume point is not possible to obtain by playing fast, in Matrix we can manage it manually as in a normal accordion or we can program it, that is to say, we can tell it in a given register to open the valve at minimum volume even if we press the button all the way down, in this way it is possible to perform fast passages at low volume.

For standard basses we can also choose whether we want flat chords and strong basses or vice versa. All these options must be pre-programmed thanks to a special app inserted in the tablet that comes with the instrument: we can program all the register changes of the song or songs to be played in chronological order and advance them with a button on the chin register or with the footswitch connected via Bluetooth to the instrument, thus allowing the musician to change without having to remember and search for the register position to select and without ever taking his hands off the instrument. The footswitch is equipped with a second element that has the ‘sustain’ function. If one or more keys on the left keyboard are pressed at the same time as the right pedal, the reeds in question will continue to sound after the key is released, allowing the player to play other melodies on the sustained notes. When the pedal is released, the valves will close and stop sounding. The pedalboard is connected via cable to a display which in turn is connected via Bluetooth to the accordion, the latter providing the accordionist with all useful information about the selected modes, banks and registers, left and right hand. LEFT HAND VERSION E 86:
The left hand can also have a second version called E-86, with which we obtain an extension of bass notes up to C1. In this case we obtain the following composition: 59 notes from E1 to C#8 (with the possibility of using C1, C#1, D1, D#1 as pedal notes)
3 voices 8,4,2
– Register 8 with extension of 59 notes from E1 to D6
– Register 4 with extension of 59 notes from E2 to D7
– Register 2 with extension of 58 notes from E3 to C#8
