Re: My Roland FR-18 is working for exactly the reason I bought it
Does running your accordion output through a DI box then to the amp help?..might be a ground effect issue?
We have a mando player with an internal pick up fitted to the instrument, who plays through an LR Baggs FX and a DI unit but he still gets a buzz....and our electric bass player still gets a hummm from his Fender...very annoying but can't seem to stop it.
I think a lot of it is just stuff that happens when you gig...the various venues emit variable interferences....or so the electronic geeks tell me. Unless the buzz is way outa control I say just get on with it, pump up the volume and entertain the punters!
The only time I can see it being an issue is in the recording studio..but those engineering guys have ways and means of fixing that.

Ok, here's part of the problem. I haven't recently gone through all the sets on the instrument. I was just using the set that is in place when you fire up the machine. I was using the third button, pressed twice, to red, and it is not so great. some of the others sound pretty smooth.
