This is helpful if you find that, e.g. one of your tom pads triggers the other toms as well or that the kick
triggers the snare. You then need to adjust the trigger threshold value.
1. Press the
S
YSTEM
button twice (or repeatedly) to select the
T
HRES
segment of the
S
YSTEM
I
NDICA
-
TOR
bar.
2. Let‘s say that your toms are also accidentally triggering your snare. You would need to raise the
threshold value of the snare channel. Select the snare channel for editing by pressing the snare
C
HANNEL
button.
3. Adjust the threshold value of the snare with the
R
OTARY
D
IAL
while playing the tom pads. Increase
the threshold value until the toms no longer trigger the snare. The higher the threshold value, the less
chance of a weak trigger pulse triggering that channel. The default value is 15 for all channels except
for the snare channel which is set to 10.
The three things that we have selected and adjusted here: Trig Input type setting, Input Sensitivity and
trigger Threshold, are very important to get the right feel when playing the ddrum4 SE system. You
might want to go back and adjust these settings later on but there is no need for doing this every time you
want to play. The system selections that you have made (trigger input selection and threshold) are auto-
matically stored in ddrum4 SE until you decide to change them.
There is another parameter called
D
YN
, which can be used to set a dynamics curve for each input. Please
for more details about the dynamic response curves.
