Controlling the parameters by tilting this unit (D-MOTION)

The S-1 features D-MOTION, which lets you control the tones according to the angle at which this unit is tilted.
You can add various effects by tilting this unit while you play.
You can see and listen to how D-MOTION works by playing the preset patterns 1-01 through 1-16.
When using this function, firmly grip both sides of this unit and be careful not to bend the connected cables too much.
Using D-MOTION
