 Making the Settings for Pads
About Settings of Pads
If the digital drum is not yet in UTILITY menu, press the
[UTILITY] button to enter it.

The UTILITY indicator will light up. You can use the [ ] or [ ]
buttons to adjust parameters (as shown to the right ) for each
pad as well as the rim sensitivity of the pad and the splash
sensitivity of the Hi-Hat control pedal.

The current pad to be edited can be selected either by pressing

its Pad Select button, or by striking the pad itself. The PAD
indicator will light up to show which pad is currently selected. If
the rim of a pad is selected, both the PAD indicator and the RIM
indicator will turn on.

Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the pad to regulate the pad

response. Higher settings result in higher sensitivity, so that the ( )
pad will produce a loud volume even when struck softly. You
can also adjust the sensitivity of the splash in SPLASH
SENSITIVITY.

Threshold: This setting allows a trigger signal to be received

only when the pad is struck harder than a specified force. This
can be used to prevent a pad from sounding in response to
extraneous vibrations from another pad.

Crosstalk: When two pads are mounted on the same stand,

the vibration produced by hitting one pad may trigger the sound
from another pad unintentionally (This is called crosstalk). You
can avoid this problem by adjusting Crosstalk Cancel on the
pad that is sounding inadvertently. If the value is set too high,
then when two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is
struck less forcefully will not sound. So be careful and set this
parameter to the minimum value required to prevent such
crosstalk. With a setting of 0 , crosstalk prevention does not
function.

Curve: This setting allows you to control the relation between

the velocity (striking force) and changes in volume (the dynamic
curve). Adjust this curve until the response feels as natural as
possible.

16
 Making the Settings for Pads

Adjusting the Pad Sensitivity

Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pad Sensitivity
page. The display will show:

Changes how a pad responds to your playing. At higher

sensitivities, the pad will generate a louder signal, even when
you play softly. At lower sensitivities, the pad will generate a
quieter signal, even if you play strongly. Adjust according to
your playing style and desired dynamic range.

Setting the Pad Threshold

Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pad Threshold
page. The display will show:

Changes how forcefully you must strike the pad to generate a

trigger signal. Setting a high threshold requires hitting the pad
very hard to get a sound. This can help cut out transient
responses, such as vibrations from the kit or accidental pad
taps that you don’t intend to generate sounds. Setting a low
threshold means even light touches will produce sound. Adjust
according to environment and playing style.

Eliminating Crosstalk between Pads

Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pad Crosstalk
page. The display will show:

When two pads are mounted close to each other, hitting one
pad may trigger the sound from another pad unintentionally.
This effect can be eliminated by setting this parameter to a
higher value on the pad is triggered unintentionally.

Selecting the Pad Curve

Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pad Curve page.

The display will show:

17
 Making the Settings for Pads

Curve refers to how the trigger signal’s dynamic response

relates to your pad hit.
Curve1: The standard setting, this produces the most natural
correspondence between playing dynamics and
volume change.

Curve2, 3: Compared to Curve1, strong dynamics produce a

greater change.

Curve4, 5: Compared to Curve1, a soft playing produces a

greater change.

Curve6: Very little dynamic response, making it easy to

maintain strong volume levels. If using drum
triggers, these settings help maintain stable levels.

Setting Rim Sensitivity on Pads

You can only set rim sensitivity on Snare, Tom1, Tom2, Tom3,
Tom4. If you select the other pads, this page will not appear.
Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pad Rim
Sensitivity page. The display will show:
Same as the basic sensitivity feature, except that it relates
specifically to playing the rim.

Note:
This parameter can be adjusted only on SNARE, TOM1, TOM2,
TOM3, TOM4. If you select the other pads on this page, a
horizontal line "---" appears, and you can't make the setting.

Adjusting the Hi-Hat Pedal Splash Sensitivity

Press the [PAGE] or [UTILITY] button, select Pedal Splash
Sensitivity page. The display will show:

 Making the Settings for MIDI
About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard that allows performance data and other information to be
exchanged among electronic musical instruments and computers. With a MIDI cable connecting MIDI connectors
equipped device, you can play multiple instruments with a single keyboard, have multiple instruments perform in
ensemble, program the settings to change kits automatically to match the performance as the song progress, and
more.

MIDI Connection
MIDI IN: This terminal receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device.
MIDI OUT: This terminal transmits data from the digital drum to other MIDI devices.

USB Connection
The USB connector allows you to connect the digital drum directly to your computer. It can be connected without
installing a driver in Windows XP/Vista/Win7 or MAC OSX environments. The digital drum will be recognized as a
“USB Audio device” to receive and transmit MIDI messages through a single USB cable. The USB port is used only
for MIDI messages (MIDI via USB)

Note:
When the USB port is connected to a computer, all MIDI messages will be received and transmitted via USB.

Using the Digital Drum as a Sound Module

Connecting an external keyboard or sequencer to the MIDI Input allows you to use the digital drum as a multi-part,
polyphonic sound module to play various instrument parts in addition to your drums (for instance, Piano on Channel
1, Bass on Channel 2, Strings on Channel 3, etc). The voices on each MIDI channel are selected using MIDI
Program Change messages (refer to GM Backing Instrument List ).

The MIDI system in the digital drum has 16 reception channels numbered from 1-16. Each of the channels is
responsible for a voice. When the instrument receives MIDI information from an external device, the active channel
is determined by the control message. Channel 10 is reserved for Drums. The digital drum has two options for
Channel 10: GM ON or OFF, as selected in MIDI UTILITY menu.
When GM Mode is ON,Channel 10 will play the GM percussion kits.
When GM Mode is OFF, Channel 10 will play the digital drum internal kits.

Note:
For more information on received MIDI messages, refer to MIDI implementation chart.
