A free-bass system is a system of left-hand bass buttons on an accordion, arranged to give the performer greater ability to play melodies with the left-hand and form one's own chords. The left-hand buttonboard consists of single-note buttons with a range of three octaves or more, in contrast to the standard Stradella bass system, which offers a shorter range of single bass notes, plus preset major, minor, dominant seventh, and diminished chord buttons. (Pressing a single preset chord button sounds a three-note chord.) The term "free-bass system" refers to various left-hand manual systems that provide this functionality: The Stradella system does not have buttons for different octaves of the bass notes, which limits the types of melodies and basslines that can be performed with the left han

  • A free-bass system is a system of left-hand bass buttons on an accordion, arranged to give the performer greater ability to play melodies with the left-hand and form one's own chords. The left-hand buttonboard consists of single-note buttons with a range of three octaves or more, in contrast to the standard Stradella bass system, which offers a shorter range of single bass notes, plus preset major, minor, dominant seventh, and diminished chord buttons. (Pressing a single preset chord button sounds a three-note chord.) The term "free-bass system" refers to various left-hand manual systems that provide this functionality: The Stradella system does not have buttons for different octaves of the bass notes, which limits the types of melodies and basslines that can be performed with the left hand. * Two related layouts exist as mirror versions of the chromatic button accordion, these were marketed in the US by the Giulietti company as "bassetti". * The "quint" free-bass system invented by Willard Palmer – later patented by Titano, has extra bass rows to extend the existing bass arrangement of the Stradella system. * The quint version and chromatic-button versions were available in "converter" (or "transformer") models with a control to switch from standard Stradella to free-bass. * A piano-like layout exists that mirrors the right-hand keyboard of a piano accordion, with round buttons laid out like piano keys. This system is popular in Asian piano accordions, especially in Azeri garmon. * A hybrid Chromatic/Stradella system known as the Moschino free-bass system is available. The system arranges the left-hand buttons so chromatic arrangement of keys, adjoining Circle-of-Fifths, chord inversions, and alternate chord voicings are available to the player simultaneously. A famous accordion musician and proponent of the advantages of the Moschino free-bass system was George Secor, and links to a more detailed description of the system is included on his wikipedia page. * Other less popular arrangements exist, such as the Kuehl system.

  • Un sistema bassi sciolti è un sistema per i pulsanti dei bassi su una fisarmonica, atto a dare all'esecutore una maggiore possibilità nel suonare melodie sulla tastiera sinistra dello strumento e di formare i propri accordi, fornendo una tastiera di bottoni per le singole note, con una gamma di tre ottave o più, in contrasto con il sistema standard dei bassi Stradella che permette soltanto note basse (intervallo di settima maggiore) e un presettaggio maggiore, minore, settima dominante e accordi diminuiti. Il termine "sistema bassi sciolti" si riferisce a vari sistemi per la mano sinistra che forniscono questa funzionalità: Tre tipi di sistema di bassi sciolti * Esistono due schemi collegati come versioni speculari della fisarmonica cromatica a bottoni, questi sono stati commercializzati negli Stati Uniti da parte della società Giulietti come "bassetti". * Il sistema bassi sciolti "quint" inventato da Bill Palmer - successivamente brevettato da Titano, ha righe di bassi in più per estendere la disposizione dei bassi esistente nel sistema Stradella. * Le versioni quint e le versioni cromatiche a bottoni erano disponibili nei modelli "converter" (o "transformer"), con un controllo per passare dallo standard Stradella al sistema bassi sciolti. * Esiste un layout tipo pianoforte che rispecchia la tastiera destra di una fisarmonica a piano, con pulsanti rotondi disposti come tasti di un pianoforte. Questo sistema è popolare nelle fisarmoniche asiatiche del pianoforte, soprattutto nelle fisasrmoniche dell'Azerbaigian. * Esistono anche altre disposizioni meno popolari, tra cui la Moschino e la Kuehl.
