Using
Controllers
with the DX7s
- 17 -
The DX7s is designed to operate with many controllers, each of which can be set to
perform one of a number of different effects. The settings for these controllers can be
different for each Voice memory or Performance memory. To begin your exploration of
the expanded musical possibilities available with controllers on the DX7s, try the
examples listed below. Many of you may already be familiar with the operation of the
these controller’s; for those who are not, each section below begins with instructions on
how to locate or attach the controller in question.
Pitch Bend Wheel
The Pitch Bend Wheel is located to the far left of the keyboard. To get an idea of some of
the effects possible with the Pitch Bend Wheel, use it with Internal Performance #1 or
Internal Performance #31. Move the Wheel both quickly and slowly as you play.
Modulation Wheel
The Modulation Wheel is located to the near left of the keyboard (to the right of the Pitch
Bend Wheel). For a taste of the possibilities of the Modulation Wheel, try it with Internal
Performance #6 or Internal Performance #13.
After Touch
After Touch is a keyboard feature that gives you extra control over a voice. It is engaged
by pushing down on the keys after they have already been depressed. To try some of the
effects available with After Touch, call up Cartridge Performance #4 or Cartridge
Performance #5 (from bank 2 of the ROM). After you have played a group of keys, press
them down into the key bed and listen to the result.
Breath Controller
The Breath Controller plugs into the mini-jack to the left of the Phones plug on the front
of the DX7s. It allows you a great deal of expressive control over the shape of the sounds
you play on the keyboard. Try using the Breath Controller in conjunction with Internal
Voice #9. With this voice, you will notice that playing on the keyboard by itself produces
no sound. In order to hear the voices, you must hold down keys and blow into the Breath
Controller.
