Here you can quickly set the rim sound, to either Rimshot, Crosstick or X-Fade . X-fade is a dynami-
cally driven switch which returns either rimshot or cross stick depending on the velocity of the stroke.
If you select x-fade, the dial of the same name activates and enables you to adjust the threshold for
the dynamics of the cross stick before it turns into a rimshot. Tap on the
[X-Fade dial] to activate the
fader. Note that the higher the fader position, the harder you must strike the rim to trigger a rim shot.

Another option is to change the volume coming from any given pad in relation to the other pads.
Simply tap on the
[Mixer] button next to the Kit Options button and then change the pad volumes
as desired. Another useful function is grouping toms or cymbals. This function allows for changing
toms and cymbals all at once in fixed relation to each other.
Double tap on a fader to restore its
default factory position . Grouped faders will center to the fader tapped, preserving their spacing.
Leave the mixer by tapping on [Kit Options] .
