Changing the Pitch or Volume by
Moving Your Hand (D BEAM)
By moving your hand above the D BEAM controller located
at the upper left of the keyboard, you can vary the pitch or
volume according to the height of your hand.
The D BEAM controller's effective
range
The D BEAM controller's effective range is shown in the
diagram at left. No effect will be obtained if you move your
hand outside this range.
Adjusting the D BEAM controller's
sensitivity
The D BEAM controller's sensitivity will decrease if it's used
in strong sunlight or strong illumination.
The GAIA SH-01 lets you adjust the sensitivity of the D
BEAM controller.
1. Hold down the [EFFECTS/ASSIGN] button and
press one of the NUMBER [1]–[8] buttons.
The higher the NUMBER button you press, the higher the
sensitivity will be.
The current sensitivity is indicated by how many NUMBER
buttons light red when you press the [EFFECTS/ASSIGN]
button.
The more NUMBER buttons that are lit red, the higher the
sensitivity.
