Many 4x owners do not realize how many accordion, orchestra, and drum sounds are built into your accordion. This is only a partial list. The ALpINE sound expansion adds more sounds that are not listed in this PDF.

It is an excellent idea to back up your Dale Mathis registrations to a USB memory stick. Download this file, then follow along with the video instructions. If the accordion should ever exhibit erratic behavior, you can simply reload the programming.

This PDF explains how to adjust to playback volume level of backing tracks that have been stored on a USB memory stick. This adjustment will also adjust the volume of recording you have made using the "record" function on the accordion. Note: you need to have a USB memory stick inserted into the accordion to make a recording using the accordion's record function.
