Recommended Settings for the Percussion Sound Module
Recommended settings for the trigger parameters when using the PD-80/PD-80R with various percussion sound
modules.
• When used with a percussion sound module capable of positional sensing, you can obtain tonal changes by varying the location
at which the pad is struck.
• You can perform rim shots and cross-sticking with the PD-80R. For information on sound generator and trigger input
combinations, refer to p. 6.
• The trigger parameters should be adjusted as necessary to match the actual state of your configuration, and the environment in
which it is being used.
• For information on how to change the parameters for a percussion sound module. Refer to the documentation for the percussion
sound module you’re using.
