VIA THE MIDI CONNECTORS:

- MIDI IN Connector: This receives MIDI messages transmitted from an

external MIDI device or a computer.

- MIDI OUT Connector: Pad performance data is transmitted from this

connector to connected computer or MIDI device.

If you’re using an external MIDI keyboard or pads to control the digital

drum, make connections as shown. Here, it is used as a sound module.

PERFORMING

SELECTING A DRUM KIT

PLAYING THE PADS

After powering up, the digital drum will be in KIT menu (KIT indicator

ON). The display should look like this:

1. Use the [ - ] and [ + ] buttons to select the active kit. There are 45 kits in the

digital drum:

• 45 preset kits (Kits 01-45)

• 25 user kits (Kits 46-70), the parameter display area will display as

“U46-U70” with an additional letter “U”.

2. Pressing the Pad Select buttons allows you to preview the current kit (xed

velocity).

3. Hit the pads to play the current kit.

Similar to an acoustic drum kit, the digital drum responds dierently to vari-

ous playing techniques and dynamics. All the pads are velocity sensitive. And

some voices change timbre depending on the striking force.

DRUM PAD HEAD OR RIM SHOT

The digital drum pad detects head and rim shots (rim shots trigger the rim

voice).

CYMBAL TRIGGER AREAS

The digital drum crash cymbals detect Bow and Edge triggering. Both crash

cymbals detect cymbal edge choke as well. Choking the crash edge with the

hand immediately after striking the crash will mute the crash sound. The ride

cymbal detects Bow triggering and bell triggering. The edge is not active

and does not have the choke function. The Hi-hat detects bow triggering but

does not have a choke function.

HIHAT: The Hi-Hat sound varies depending on the posi-

tion of the Hi-Hat pedal:

OPEN HIHAT: Strike the Hi-Hat pad without pressing the pedal.

HALFOPEN HIHAT: Strike the Hi-Hat pad with the pedal pressed

halfway down.

CLOSED HIHAT: Strike the Hi-Hat pad with the pedal pressed

completely down.

PEDAL CLOSE: Press the pedal completely down without strik-

ing the pad.
