D BEAM CONTROLLER section
Use the [ON/OFF] button to switch the D Beam Con-
troller on (the button lights) or off (button dark). By
holding down the [ON/OFF] button for more than a
second, you call up the display page where you can
select the parameter to be controlled via the D Beam.
(These parameters can also be selected by pressing the
[CONTROLLERS] button.)
Note: The D Beam technology has been licensed from Inter-
active Light, Inc.
Move your hand or body over the two “eyes” to con-
trol the volume, filter setting, modulation depth, etc.,
of the currently active Keyboard parts.
B
VOLUME knob
Use this knob to set the VA-76’s global output volume
(all sections) both in the speakers and the headphones
you may have connected. The setting of this knob also
determines the volume of the signals sent to the out-
puts.
C
M-FX knob and ON/OFF button
The [M-FX] knob allows you to control one multi-
effects parameter in realtime. The [ON/OFF] button is
used to switch the multi-effects on or off. Press and
hold it to call up a display page where you can set the
M-FX parameters. Please note that this only affects the
parts that have been assigned to the multi-effects.
D
BALANCE knob
This knob allows you to set the balance between the
Arranger parts (“ACCOMP”) and the solo sounds
(“KEYBOARD”).
E
MELODY INTELL button
Press this button (so that it lights) to add an automatic
counter-melody (second and third voice) to your solos
or melodies. Press and hold this button to call up a
page where you can select the harmony type.
F
CONTROLLERS button
This button provides access to a display page where
you can define the functions of the VA-76’s standard
and optional realtime controls. These include the D
Beam Controller as well as an optional footswitch and
expression pedal, and three sliders for controlling
VariPhrase playback.
G
EFFECTS button
Press this button to call up the display page where you
can set all effects parameters. The VA-76 provides two
sets of effects: a group of four that are accessible to
most parts, and a group of two that are reserved for
the VariPhrase processor and the Audio In part.
H
ONE TOUCH button
This button has two functions: when pressed in isola-
tion, it takes you to the display page where you can
select/program so-called One-Touch memories for the
currently selected Music Style (see page 29).
By holding it down while pressing the USER PRO-
GRAM [DOWN] or [UP] button, you transpose the
VA-76 in semitone steps.
I
SYNC button
Press this button to activate one (or two) SYNC func-
tion(s). By default, SYNC START is selected. Hold this
button down to call up a display page where you can
select another SYNC option.
