1-1. Pad Type

Sets the type of pad or trigger sensor that is connected to the trig-
ger input jack q. By selecting the appropriate pad type, pad func-
tions can be used to their full potential.
TRIG IN= 1
Type= KP
q TRIG IN (Trigger Input Number)
[Range] 1-10
Assigns the trigger input jack number for the pad you want to edit.
* According to the setting in the utility mode's [2-1. Learn Mode]
(P. 30) trigger input jack numbers can be assigned by hitting the pad.
w Type (Pad Type)
Sets the type of pad that is connected to the trigger input jack
assigned in q TRIG IN.
* Values set in [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity] (P. 12) and [1-4. Self
Rejection] (P. 13) will automatically select the proper value for
the pad type you set here.
* The "HH contrler" can only be assigned to Input Jack 1. Con-
nect the Hi-hat Controller HH65, HH60, HH80 or HH80A to Input
Jack 1 and set to "HH contrler" to use in place of a kick pedal.
Use a cable with a stereo plug when connecting a Hi-hat controller.
Pad types are defined as follows.

This function sets the input sensitivity (Gain) and velocity range
(Minimum Velocity) for each input jack q.
q TRIG IN (Trigger Input Number)
Assigns the trigger input jack number. (The same procedure as in
[1-1. Pad Type]).
w GAIN (Input Gain)
Adjusts the input gain level (minimum sensitivity) for the trigger
input jack assigned in step q TRIG IN.
Entering a larger value here allows smaller input levels to sound
the voice.
e MVel (Minimum Velocity)
Sets the MIDI Velocity (volume) that is transmitted when the pad
is hit the weakest. Large values will produce a high volume level
even if the pad is hit softly. However, this will result in a narrow
volume range making it difficult to adequately produce wider dy-
namic levels.

put 2/6/7, its 3-zone function is avail-
able (pad x1, rim sound x2). If the pad
is connected to any other input, the
rim will produce only one sound.
For closed rim shots, sensitivity is set
high on TP1/SnrA rim 1 and TP1/
SnrB rim 2. Sensitivity settings for
right and left rims are identical on TP1/Tom.
those on TP1/SnrA. This provides left-handed drummers with
a proper setting when using a left-handed setting.
signed to rim 1 will be produced by TP2-A (Input 2:snrR1,
Input 6:rideE, Input 7:crashE), and the voiced assigned to
rim 2 will be produced by TP2-B (Input 2:snrR2, Input6: rideC,
Input 7:crashC). (Refer to page 17.)
9/10 and assign the pad voice to Input 9 and rim voice to Input

not be produced.
