This function allows you to prevent an excessive amount of data from being
transmitted from the controllers (pads, D Beam, ribbons, hi-hat control pedal, etc.)
to the internal sequencer or via the MIDI OUT. This will be used if you wish to
conserve sequencer memory, it will cause tonal changes to become rougher.
Place your hand at the height at which you want the D Beam to start to take
effect (about 20 inches = 50cm), and adjust the setting so that the meter in the
upper right of the screen is at the center line. When the power is turned on,
this will be adjusted automatically according to the brightness of the surroundings.
Make adjustments so that the D Beam triggers sound and outputs control data
smoothly. Adjust the setting so that the meter in the upper right of the screen
moves smoothly when you move your hand up or down.
OFF: Data sent from the controllers is not reduced.
* When you want to make smooth changes in pitch control with Hi-Hat control Pedal,
set this to "1" or "OFF."
