2 Safety instructions

Drum modules are intended to be used for converting digital trigger signals from drum pads
to various percussion sounds. Use the unit only as described in this manual. Any other use or
use under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may result in personal
injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for damages resulting from improper
use.

This device may be used only by persons with sufficient physical, sensorial, and intellectual
abilities and having corresponding knowledge and experience. Other persons may use this
device only if they are supervised or instructed by a person who is responsible for their safety.

DANGER!
Danger for children

Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are not
within reach of babies and young children. Choking hazard!

Ensure that children do not detach any small parts (e.g. knobs or the like) from
the unit. They could swallow the pieces and choke!

Never let children unattended use electrical devices.

CAUTION!
Possible hearing damage

With loudspeakers or headphones connected, the device can produce volume
levels that may cause temporary or permanent hearing impairment.

Do not operate the device permanently at a high volume level. Decrease the
volume level immediately if you experience ringing in your ears or hearing
impairment.

NOTICE!
Operating conditions

This device has been designed for indoor use only. To prevent damage, never
expose the device to any liquid or moisture. Avoid direct sunlight, heavy dirt, and
strong vibrations.

NOTICE!
External power supply

The device is powered by an external power supply. Before connecting the
external power supply, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches the
voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual cur‐
rent circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and pos‐
sibly the user.

Unplug the external power supply before electrical storms occur and when the
device is unused for long periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or
fire.

n Pad

With the snare drum we distinguish between Head and Rimshot.
– Head

Strike the head only.

– Rimshot

Simultaneously strike the head and the rim or only the rim of the pad.

n Cymbal

With cymbals we distinguish between Cymbal Bowshot and Choke Play.
– Cymbal Bowshot

Play the bell area of the cymbal.

– Choke Play

Choke Play is possible with Crash and Ride cymbals but not with the Hi-hat. To do so,
stop the sound of the Crash and Ride cymbals with the hand at the edge of the cymbal
immediately after hitting it.

n Hi-hat

With the Hi-hat we distinguish between Hi-hat pedal change, open Hi-Hat, closed Hi-hat,
Hi-hat pedal and Splash.

– Hi-hat pedal change

When the pedal is pressed in different positions, the voice changes when hitting the
Hi-hat pad (similar to an acoustic drum kit).

– Open Hi-hat

Strike the Hi-hat pad without pressing the pedal.

– Closed Hi-hat

Strike the Hi-hat pad with fully pressed pedal.

– Hi-Hat pedal

Press the Hi-hat controller pedal to generate a closed sound without striking the Hi­hat pad.

6.6 Utility menu

Press [UTILITY] to open the menu. With [PAGE–/+] you can jump between the various parame‐
ters:

The touch sensitivity regulates the volume behaviour of a pad regardless of the actual strike
intensity. The higher the value, the higher the volume when playing, and vice versa.

Value range: 1 … 16.

This parameter controls the touch sensitivity of the rim trigger (snare and toms).
Value range: 1 … 16.

The threshold value determines from what intensity a trigger produces a sound. The higher
the value, the less sensitive the trigger responses to vibrations of other pads.

Value range: 1 … 16.

Threshold

Operating

MPS-425

41

If several pads are mounted on a rack vibrations can be transmitted to other pads when you hit
a trigger and unintentionally trigger sounds. This crosstalk can be avoided by the appropriate
setting. The value should be set as low as possible.

Value range: 1 … 16.

X talk

Operating

e-drum module

42

The trigger curve regulates the velocity, i.e., the ratio between the punch and volume. Use set‐
ting ‘Curve 1’ for the most natural ratio between punch and volume. When using ‘Curve 2’ or

‘Curve 3’ , a strong strike will cause a bigger change. When using ‘Curve 4’ or ‘Curve 5’, a light

strike will cause a bigger change. With the setting ‘Curve 6’ the volume changes less upon a
change of the strike. High volumes are already reached at a relatively low strike intensity.

Value range: Curve 1 … Curve 6.

Curve

Operating

MPS-425

43

We call it ‘double trigger’ when multiple sounds are successively produced when playing a
pad. This effect can i.a. be caused by irregular waveforms especially in the decaying of the
trigger. With this parameter, these distortions can be suppressed. The higher the value is, the
higher the likelihood that rapidly successive strikes - such as in a drum roll - are no longer
detected. So the value should be set as low as possible.

Value range: 1 … 16.

This parameter regulates the touch sensitivity of the Hi-hat controller. The higher the value,
the less sensitive the trigger responses.

Value range: 0 … 2

This parameter regulates the touch sensitivity of the Splash trigger. The higher the value, the
less sensitive the trigger responses.

Value range: 1 … 5

Selecting ‘L’ or ‘R’ (default setting) allows to switch from left-handed to right-handed configu‐
ration of the entire set without having to change the wiring.

This parameter defines the signal processing in the module: ON: Drum module and MIDI sound

This parameter defines the processing of programme change commands: ON: Programme
change commands for MIDI channel 10 are processed as selection [GM kit] . OFF: Programme
change commands for MIDI channel 10 are processed as selection [local kit] .

Value range: ON … OFF

8 Plug and connection assignment

This chapter will help you select the right cables and plugs to connect your valuable equip‐
ment in such a way that a perfect sound experience is ensured.

Please note these advices, because especially in ‘Sound & Light’ caution is indicated: Even if a
plug fits into the socket, an incorrect connection may result in a destroyed power amp, a short
circuit or ‘just’ in poor transmission quality!

Unbalanced transmission is mainly used in semi-professional environment and in hifi use.
Instrument cables with two conductors (one core plus shielding) are typical representatives of
the unbalanced transmission. One conductor is ground and shielding while the signal is trans‐
mitted through the core.

Unbalanced transmission is susceptible to electromagnetic interference, especially at low
levels, such as microphone signals and when using long cables.

In a professional environment, therefore, the balanced transmission is preferred, because this
enables an undisturbed transmission of signals over long distances. In addition to the conduc‐
tors ‘Ground’ and ‘Signal’, in a balanced transmission a second core is added. This also transfers
the signal, but phase-shifted by 180°.

Introduction

Balanced and unbalanced trans‐
mission

Plug and connection assignment

e-drum module

52

Since the interference affects both cores equally, by subtracting the phase-shifted signals, the
interfering signal is completely neutralized. The result is a pure signal without any noise inter‐
ference.

9 Cleaning

Clean the accessible parts of the device regularly. The frequency of cleaning depends on the
operating environment: moist, smoky or particularly dirty environments may cause a higher
accumulation of dirt on the components of the device.

n Use a dry soft cloth for cleaning.
n Remove stubborn stains with a slightly damp cloth.
n Never use cleaners containing alcohol or thinner.
n Never put any vinyl items on the device, as vinyl can stick to the surface or lead to its disco‐

louration.
