·In the default setting, "1: Medium" is selected.

·Medium (Med): Normal Setting

·Dynamic (Dyna): Wide dynamic range. The setting is designed for maximum expressive control, allowing performance subtleties over a wide dynamic range. Excessive vibration however, may result in crosstalk (sound being produced by other pads).

·If you use a kit other than those listed above, create your original Trigger Setup (16-19) by following the instructions on page 34 of the Owner's Manual, referring to the Pad Types described below.

Other manufacturer’s pads 1 to 6

·SN-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are used as snare pads. TM-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are used as tom pads. CY-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are used as cymbal pads. HH-1 and 2 are used as hi-hat pads.

* These pad types differ in the sensitivity settings among the three sections (the Bow, Edge, and Cup sections in a 3-zone cymbal pad). You can change these as desired.

The "CY-1" setting features the same sensitivity settings for all three sections. In the "CY-2" setting, the sensitivity of the Edge section is fairly lower than that of the other sections.

In the "CY-3" setting, the sensitivity of the Cup section is fairly lower than that of the other sections.

Other Comments

Executing a cymbal "choke" (gripping a cymbal pad's edge to mute the sound) transmits a Polyphonic Key Pressure MIDI message.
