The
D Beam controller
can be used simply by waving your hand
over it. It can be used to apply various effects, depending on the
function that is assigned to it. You can also create effects in which the
sound changes instantaneously, in a way that would not be possible
by operating a knob or the bender lever. On the Fantom-Xa, the D
Beam controller can be used not only to modify the sounds assigned
to the Keyboard part or Pad part, but also to control the pitch of a
monophonic (solo) synthesizer sound.

The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change depending
on the amount of light in the vicinity of the unit. If it does not
function as you expect, adjust the D Beam Sens parameter as
appropriate for the brightness of your location. Increase this
value will raise the sensitivity (p. 201).
