Explanation
Adjusts the strength of breath at which sound starts being
heard.
The larger the value, the stronger you must blow to make a
sound.
Turns off the bite sensor control.
Reducing the strength of your bite on the reed makes the pitch fall.
Cyclically varying the strength of your bite on the reed applies vibrato.
This sets how much bite is applied to the reed (bite center) when playing normally.
When set to "Auto, " this is automatically set.
* You can also set the bite center by pressing the +2 octave and -2 octave keys at the same
time with the mouthpiece in your mouth, as when you're usually playing.
Sets the sensitivity when Bite Ctrl Mode is set to "E-Wind. "
Increase this value if you want to make the effect easier to apply; lower this value if the
effect is too strong.
Select "Bite Calibration," and then press the
[MENU] button.
Use your fingers to hold the reed while
"CNO YESA" is shown.
Selects whether the bend range in system settings (System) or the bend range set in each
scene (Scene) is used when operating the pitch bend.
Sets the bend range in cents, when "Bend Down" or "Bend Up"
is assigned to the bite controller.
Sets the bend range in semitones, when "Bend Up" or "Bend
Down" is assigned to the thumb lever or to another controller.
Either the Bend Range Bite, Bend Range Motion or Bend Range Ctrl (whichever is larger) is
used for the bend range.
When you use both bite control and the thumb lever or other bend controls together, the
bend range is limited to the maximum or minimum value and does not operate beyond
this.
Automatically calculates the bend range using the combination of Bend Range Bite, Bend
Range Motion and Bend Range Ctrl.
Sets how much the thumb pad affects the sound.
Larger values produce a greater effect.
Weakening the strength of your bite on the reed
lowers the pitch
Apply vibrato by repeatedly strengthening and weakening
the strength of your bite on the reed
