D Beam Controller
The D Beam controllers let you perform control operations simply by
passing your hand over the controller. Three different uses (such as
solo synth and turntable) for this controller are offered as presets,
but by editing the settings you can use these controllers to apply a
wide range of other effects.

SOLO SYNTH
This is a monophonic synthesizer for which your left hand (beam 1)
controls volume, and your right hand (beam 2) controls the pitch.

1.
Press [D BEAM ASSIGN] so the “SOLO SYNTH”
indicator is lighted.
2.
Press [BEAM 1 ON] and [BEAM 2 ON] so both
indicators are lighted.
3.
When you move your hand near beam 1, sound will
be heard.
• After the sound begins, moving your hand closer to beam 1 will
make the volume softer, and moving your hand away will make
the volume louder.

• Moving your hand closer to beam 2 will raise the pitch, and
moving your hand away will lower the pitch.
*
If the hand that is near beam 1 leaves the effective range of the D Beam
controller, the volume will gradually diminish and finally the sound
will disappear. This prevents the sound from remaining “stuck on.”

CUT + RESO (Cutoff + Resonance)
1.
Press [D BEAM ASSIGN] so the “CUT+RESO”
indicator is lighted.
2.
Press [BEAM 1 ON] and [BEAM 2 ON] so both
indicators are lighted.

In the FILTER block, press [TYPE] to select Filter
4.
Pass your hands over beams 1/2 to control the sound
of the current part.
• Moving your hand closer to beam 1 will raise the cutoff
frequency, and moving your hand away will lower it.
• Moving your hand closer to beam 2 will increase the resonance,
and moving your hand away will decrease it.
If the Filter Type has been set to LPF2 or LPF3, the resonance setting
will have no effect, so moving your hand over beam 2 will not affect
the sound.

• Moving your hand closer to beam 1 will slow down the tempo.
• Moving your hand closer to beam 2 will lower the pitch.
