How can I avoid double triggers?
At first, you should check the tension of the heads of the affected pads. It should be even and not too
loose. You should also make sure that the pad is mounted properly and does not vibrate too much. If you
still have problems with double triggers, you can change the trigger settings (GAIN and THRES) on the
Page TRIG in the mode UNIT. See section 10.2 UNIT
– TRIG* starting on page 47.
How do I get a more consistent kick signal?
There are situations in which a pronounced dynamic at the kick signal is not desired. In these cases, the
GAIN parameter on the Page TRIG in the mode UNIT can be used to even out the volume. Set the value
so that the kick signal has a more consistent volume.
How can I mount a pedal or a double pedal?
Pedals can be set up and mounted just like with acoustic drums. Make sure, however, that the beater
NEVER hits the sensor directly (applies to kick pad with central trigger sensor MK1 and MK2 version),
otherwise you will destroy the sensor in a very short time.
How do I assign individual drum channels to direct outputs?
The DrumIt Five provides many routing options. Read from page 64 on, what settings you need to make
in order to assign individual channels directly to specific outputs.
Can I connect two pads to one plug and assign different sounds?
Absolutely. The drum channels TOM 1 to TOM 4 and SNARE have a parallel PERC channel, which can
be utilized separately using a Y-split cable. How this works is described in detail on page 15 and page
18.
Can I assign a separate MIDI channel to each drum channel?
Yes, in the mode UNIT on page INTF. How this exactly works is described on page 52.
I've lost a cable. Do I need to buy something special?
The 2BOX cables are standard stereo jack cables (6,3 mm).
