Introduction
Your Hart Dynamics Electracoustic® Drum System is the result of years
of research and development and represents the most comprehensive
electronic drum system available. Easy enough to use for the beginning
drummer with features that allow the most advanced user flexibility never
before available. To assure proper set up, take full advantage of your
drum set’s functions, and to enjoy long and trouble free use, please read
the Set-up Guide and Module Reference Manual carefully.
How to Use this manual
This Set-up Guide is designed to help you configure your drumset to the
“power on” stage. Please refer to your Module Reference Manual for
playing and programming. Our Quick Set Up page will provide additional
assistance. After basic operation is achieved, you will probably want to
“fine tune” settings to your personal style and taste.
Conventions
TRS stands for Tip / Ring / Sleeve.
This is the same as a “stereo” jack, where one input, output or cable carry
two signals at the same time.
8When something important appears in the manual, an
icon (like the one on the left) will appear in the left margin.
This symbol indicates that this information is vital when set-
ting up/operating your drum set.

Drum Rack Set-up
Your PRODIGY Drumset comes with complete hardware and cables. We
have provided the quick set-up sheet so you have pictures of the assem-
bled rack and module mount recommendations for reference.
NOTE: HW-UMMT/A (ALESIS) module mounts are shown in all
rack set up pictures. Module mount for Roland/ Yamaha modules are not
included.
During the following assembly, we recommend you tighten each
clamp only enough to hold it in place. After complete assembly and posi-
tioning, it is then recommended you tighten each clamp securely.
NOTE: The following pages contain information that includes basic
global tips for connecting HDI Electracoustic® Percussion Products to all
manufacturers sound modules. You should consult the manufacturer’s
owners manual of the sound/trigger module you are using for optimum
playability. Our products are the finest products available in the world,
and go through extensive testing to insure compatability, but you will only
achieve optimum results by using optimum settings. For best results,
adjust each instrument individually by unplugging all inputs except the
one you are adjusting (Not necessary for users who are familiar with X-
talk settings).
DISCLAIMER
NOTE: All Company and Product names, numbers, models and/or
Trademarks in this manual are assumed to be registered and are the
property of their respective commercial entities. HDI makes no claims to
endorse or recommend any of the above which might be mentioned.

Installing Drums and Cymbals
There are as many ways to configure your drum set as there are drum-
mers. Our HARTWARE® or ULTILITE® rack and mounting system will
allow you to position each drum and cymbal to suit your taste.
1. Start with the SNARE drum. Position your drum throne to the height at
which you are most comfortable, then install the snare pad on to the snare
mount.
2. Locate the bass drum pad and install.
3. Install bass drum pedal and clamp pedal to Bass drum. Adjust position.
4. Locate the hh pedal and adjust position on floor.
5. Install Hi-Hat pad and adjust position.
6. Install Ride and adjust position.
7. Install Toms and adjust position.
8. Install Crash and adjust position.
Adjust the drum head tension. All drums are pre-tensioned from the
factory, but you may adjust them to your taste and playing style. Snare
drums usually have the tightest tension, high tom next , then down to loos-
est on floor tom(s) and Bass Drum. It is important to adjust head tensions
BEFORE setting up module as different tensions will affect triggering char-
acteristics slightly. Adjust using any standard drum key (supplied).
IMPORTANT! Hart Dynamics KONTROL SCREEN® drum heads
are extremely durable and will typically last much longer than their
acoustic conterparts. ALL PRODIGY DRUM HEADS ARE SPECIFIC
8" PRODIGY HEADS. YOU MAY ONLY USE 8" (KSM08-P) PRODIGY
DRUM HEADS ON PRODIGY DRUMS. ALL BASS DRUM HEADS MUST
BE TREATED AS YOU WOULD AN ACOUSTIC BASS DRUM HEAD.
Felt beaters are recommended and you should not have to replace the
bass drum head for a very long time, if ever. If you choose to use a plastic
or wooden beater, you should take the same precautions that you would
normally take on an acoustic bass drum. We recommend using a protec-
tive patch just as you would on an acoustic kick. Hart Dynamics does not
guarantee drum heads.
