Chapter 9. Using the D Beam
TRIGGER
As an alternative to striking the pad itself, you can use the D Beam controller to play a specified pad.
SYNTH
This lets you use the D Beam to control the pitch of a built-in monophonic synthesizer.
D Beam Setting Parameters
Parameter Value Explanation
Pad Number 1–16 Specifies the pad number that will be played by the D Beam controller.
Pad Velocity 1–127 Specifies the loudness of the pad sound played by the D Beam controller.
Trig Mode MOMENTARY,
LATCH
Specifies what will happen when you place your hand above the D Beam.
MOMENTARY : The pad sound will be on only while your hand stays above the
D Beam; it will turn off when you take your hand away.
LATCH : The pad sound will alternately turn on/off each time you place
your hand above the D Beam.
Parameter Value Explanation
Send Select DRY, MFX Specifies whether an effect will be applied.
DRY : The synth sound will not be sent to the effect.
MFX : The synth sound will be sent to the effect.
Pitch Low 0–127 Specifies the lower pitch limit for the D Beam controller.
Pitch High 0–127 Specifies the upper pitch limit for the D Beam controller.

PENTA MIN Specifies the scale that will be used. Moving your hand closer to the D Beam
controller will produce higher pitches. Choose one of the following 21 scales.
CHROMATIC : Chromatic Scale
TCHEREPINS : Tcherepnin's Scale
SPANISH : Spanish Scale
BLUES MIXO : Blues Mixolydian Scale
COMB DIM: Combination of Diminished Scale
MAJOR : Diatonic Major Scale
MINOR : Natural Minor Scale
HARMONIC MAJ : Harmonic Major Scale
HARMONIC MIN : Harmonic Minor Scale
DBL HARMONIC : Double Harmonic Scale
MELO MIN : Melodic Minor Scale
GYPSY : Gypsy Scale
DOMINANT : Dominant Scale
HEX : Whole Tone Scale
HEX BLUE : Hexatonic Blue Scale
AUGMENT : Augmented Scale
RYUKYU : Ryukyu Scale
INSEN DEC : In Sen Scale, Decending
INSEN ASC : In Sen Scale, Ascending
PENTA : Major Pentatonic Scale
PENTA MIN : Minor Pentatonic Scale
Level 0–127 Specifies the volume of the synth sound.
Osc Wave SAW, TRI, PLS,
NOISE Selects the waveform of the oscillator that generates the sound.
SAW ( sawtooth wave ): A thick sound rich in overtones.
TRI (triangle wave): A mild sound with fewer overtones.
PLS (pulse wave): The sound will be affected by the following two settings
(“PWM Depth” and “PWM Duty”).
NOISE : Noise.
PWM Depth 0–127 Depth specifies the depth to which the LFO will modulate the pulse width of
the pulse wave. This creates a distinctive cyclic tonal change. Higher settings
produce a deeper effect.
PWM Duty 0–127 Specifies the width of the pulse. Higher settings produce a narrower pulse
width.
