Setup
Caution!
To prevent electric shock and damage to the device, make sure the power is switched
OFF on the drum and all related devices before making any connection.
Connecting Pads and Pedals
Using the provided cable harness, connect the pads, cymbals, and pedal using the assignments listed on each
cable. (See the below illustration for reference)
Note:
1. The voice of the hi-hat pad hitting is controlled by the hi-hat pedal. Similar to a real drum kit, the hi-hat pad functions
as an 'open hi-hat' when the pedal is released. When the pedal is stepped, it functions as a 'closed hi-hat'.
2. The valid striking area of the cymbal pad (ride, crash or hi-hat) is near the edge of the pad, which is different from
other pads.

Connecting a Computer
MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, this is a world-wide standard
communication interface that enables electronic musical instruments and
computers (of all brands) to communicate with each other so that MIDI command
and other data can pass between them. This exchange of information makes it
possible to create a system of MIDI instruments and devices that offer far greater
versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments. Whether you
interface with computers, sequencers, expanders or other controllers, your
musical horizons will be greatly enhanced.
MIDI connection
MIDI OUT: This terminal transmits data from this instrument to other MIDI devices.
USB connection
The USB connector allows you to connect the module directly to your computer. It
can be connected without driver installation under the Windows XP\Vista\Windows
7 and MAC OSX environment.
The module will be recognized as 'USB Audio device' to receive and transmit MIDI
messages through a single USB cable, USB transmits MIDI and USB only for
MIDI messages (MIDI via USB).
Note:
When the USB is connected to a computer, all MIDI messages will be received
and transmitted via USB.
