Bite Sensor
The bite sensor controls the character of the vibrato effect you generate when you bite the
mouthpiece while playing a note.
Note: The vibrato effect is obtained by biting the mouthpiece many times rather than a single
steady bite.
To adjust the bite sensor:
1. Press and hold the Setup Button to enter Setup Mode.
2. Press the Hold Button or Interval Button to scroll through the options until bt (Bite
Sensor) appears in the display.
3. Release the Setup Button. The display will show the current mode. Use the Hold Button
or Interval Button to select any of the following options:
FL (Filter): A high-pass filter will be applied to the bite sensor. When this is on, any
note that sounds as you bite the mouthpiece will eventually return to its original
state, even if you bite continuously. If you select this, press the Trans Button to turn
it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.
Pb (Pitch Bend): Biting the mouthpiece will bend the pitch of the note. Press the
Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.
To set the depth of the pitch bend, press and hold the Trans Button, and then use
the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the value: -63 to +63 (values under -9 will
be shown with a dot between the digits). Negative values indicate a downward pitch
bend, while positive values indicate an upward pitch bend.
bS (Breath Sensor): Biting the mouthpiece will change the breath sensor's output.
Press the Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the
display.
To set the depth of the change, press and hold the Trans Button, and then use the
Hold Button or Interval Button to set the value: -99 to +99 (values under -9 will be
shown with a dot between the digits). Negative values indicate a decrease in output,
while positive values indicate an increase in output.
