Roland SP-555 用户手册

 

The SP-555 provides a D Beam controller, which lets you 
modify the sound in various ways by moving your hand 
above it. You can choose one of three modes: [SYNTH] 
(monophonic synthesizer), which lets you control the pitch by 
your hand position; [FILTER], which lets you control the cutoff 
frequency; and [TRIGGER], which lets you trigger the desired 
pad.

 

The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change depending 
on the brightness of the environment. If it does not operate as 
you expect, please readjust the sensitivity (D Beam Sens) as 
follows.

While holding down [CANCEL], press either [SYNTH], 
[FILTER], or [TRIGGER], and then use the CTRL 3 knob to adjust 
the sensitivity. Turning the knob toward the right will increase 
the sensitivity. When you’ve finished adjusting the sensitivity, 
you can press [SAMPLING] to save the setting.

 

If you press [SYNTH] so the button is lit, you’ll be able to use 
the SP-555 as a monophonic synthesizer whose pitch is 
controlled by the position of your hand above the D Beam 
controller. Moving your hand closer to the controller will 
raise the pitch in steps of the scale you select. Use [SYNTH] 
+ CTRL 2 to change the scale.

There’s also a built-in delay that can be used to produce a 
variety of effects.

[SYNTH] will blink when you’re within the effective range of 
the D Beam controller.

The effective range of the D Beam controller
The illustration below shows the effective range of the D 
Beam controller. Moving your hand beyond this range 
will not produce any effect.

The effective range of the D Beam controller will be 
greatly reduced under strong, direct sunlight. Please be 
aware of this when using the D Beam controller 
outdoors.
