The larger the value, the stronger you must blow to make a
sound.
These parameters set how the bite sensor controls the sound.
O Turns o the bite sensor control.
Reducing the strength of your bite on the reed makes the pitch fall.
Sax
Weakening the strength of your bite on the reed
lowers the pitch
Cyclically varying the strength of your bite on the reed applies vibrato.
E-Wind
Apply vibrato by repeatedly strengthening and weakening
the strength of your bite on the reed
This sets how much bite is applied to the reed (bite center) when playing normally.
Auto, 1–70
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.”

bend range is limited to the maximum or minimum value and does not operate beyond
this.
