Rear Panel

1. Power Input: Connect the included power adapter (9 V DC, 1,500 mA) to this input.
2. Cable Restraint: You can secure the cable of the power adapter to this restraint to help prevent
disconnecting it accidentally.
3. Power Switch: Press this button to power the unit on. Power it on only after you have connected
all of your input devices and before you power on any connected loudspeakers. Press and hold
this button for 3 seconds to power the unit off. All of your settings will be saved automatically
when powering down. Power off your loudspeakers before powering off the unit.
4. USB Memory: Connect a USB flash drive to this port to load and save WAV files, kits, and global
settings. See the full User Guide for more information.
5. USB MIDI/Audio: Use a standard USB cable to connect this USB port to an available USB port
on your computer. This connection sends and receives MIDI and audio information to and from
the computer.
6. MIDI In (5-pin DIN): Connect this input to the MIDI output of an external MIDI device (synthesizer,
drum machine, etc.).
7. MIDI Out/Thru (5-pin DIN): Connect this output to the MIDI input of an external MIDI device
(synthesizer, drum machine, etc.). In Thru mode, MIDI received from the MIDI Input will be sent
back out of this output. To enable Thru mode, go to Edit Utility > MIDI and set the MIDI Thru
setting to On.
8. Main Outputs: (1/4"/6.35 mm, TS): Connect these outputs to your loudspeakers, audio interface,
etc. Turn the Main Knob on the top panel to adjust the volume level.
9. Aux Outputs (1/4"/6.35 mm, TS): Connect these outputs to route audio signal to another
destination. You can individually route sounds from each pad, trigger in, or foot control to either
the Main Outputs or Aux Outputs by going to the Edit Pad > Output menu and changing the
Audio Output setting.
10. Trigger Inputs (1/4"/6.35 mm, TS and TRS): Connect these inputs to your acoustic or electronic
triggers. When connected, hitting a trigger will send an electric signal to the MultiPad, which will
trigger the corresponding sound. Trigger In 1 is a single-zone connection and Trigger Ins 2/3
and 4/5 are dual-zone connections. The HH Pedal can be connected to an on/off control or a
variable foot controller.
11. Record Inputs (1/4"/6.35 mm, TS): Connect these inputs to an audio source such as a
smartphone, microphone, instrument or mixer for recording samples which you can then assign
to the pads. The sound from these inputs is also passed to the Main, Aux, or Phones Outputs.
To change the routing and volume level, go to the Utility > Audio menu.
12. Foot Control (1/4"/6.35 mm, TRS): Connect optional footswitches to these inputs for additional
sounds or control functions.
13. Mic/Line Gain: Turn this knob to set the gain level of the Record Inputs. If you are using a mic-
level input, turn the knob toward the Mic setting. If you are using a line-level input, turn the knob
toward the Line setting. Use the signal meter in Sample mode to evaluate the input level.
