The New features of DTX V2

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

As shown in the tree chart below, new features have been added to the Drum Kit Trigger Edit, Song Job, and Utility modes. Minor changes have also been made to Drum Kit Trigger Edit Mode, Drum Voice Edit Mode, Pattern Record/Job Mode, Song Record/ Job Mode, and Utility Mode in the form of additional parameters or modifications in the operation procedure.

This chart contains new features (shaded) and modified or additional (underlined) items. Reference pages of their description or

related information in the Owner's Manual are listed after each of these items.

More Drum Kits

The number of drum percussion voices has increased from 916 to 928 types and the preset drum kits have increased from 32 types to 61 types. (29 new drum kits have been added in user area drum kits 1 to 29.)

No. 1 to 29 include drum kits entered in advance. To edit the drum kit for these numbers, it is recommended to copy a user kit between No. 30 to 32 and use it at a later stage. When you reset an edited drum kit back to its original settings (Owner’s Manual P. 32), it is possible to set it back to factory settings. When you do so, all the data will be erased. Save the data you have edited to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF2 before you reset.

Description of New Features

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Here is the description of the features newly added to each mode. The layout is the same as the Reference chapter of the Owner's Manual for you to use together with this guide.

Drum Kit Trigger Edit Mode

26 In 9to10 (input 9 to 10)

When you play the pad connected to input 9, it is possible also to generate the voice set to input 10. Because you can assign different voice to each input 9 and 10, it is possible to use the kick pad and play a bass sound and a bass drum sound simultaneously. When doing so, by using the alter or alterMN modes on the Key On (key on mode) setting on the 14th display page, you can play a bass drum sound each time you hit (step on) a pad, and also play the bass line. Use this as reference to set the kick pad for the new additional drum kit; “12 kick3itm.” (P.22)

Rotate the Data Scroll Wheel or use the +1/YES and

-1/NO buttons. When this is set "on," this function is ON and the voice from input 10 will be generated when a pad connected to input 9 is played. When this is set "off," the function is canceled.

In 9to10

27 In11to12 (input 11 to 12)

When you play the pad connected to input 11, it is possible also to generate the voice set to input 12. As in the case of the "In 9 to 10" on the 26th display page, this function is used to generate different voices assigned to each input simultaneously.

Use the Data Scroll Wheel or the +1/YES or -1/NO buttons. When this is set "on," this function is ON and the voice from input 12 will be generated when a pad connected to input 11 is played. However, input to INPUT 12 is ignored. When this is set "off," the function is canceled.
