What is Drum Kit?
The synthesizer patch that assigns sounds to each pad is called a "drum kit". Changing the drum
kit patch to Jazz or Rock changes the sound of each pad to a sound suitable for that genre.
Performing
When you hit the pad, it resounds.
1
The sound changes naturally according to the strength of hitting.
Use VOLUME [+][–] to adjust the volume.
2
*Please adjust the volume to an appropriate level for playing. If
the volume is too low, it may cause you to exert unnecessary
force when playing, which may cause injuries to your hands
and arms. Also, if the volume is too loud, this may damage your
hearing and increase the risk of hearing loss. Please be careful
when setting your output volume, especially when playing the
drums around young children. It is possible to adjust and set a
maximum limit for the output volume level (p.33).
