Changing the drum kits
There are 35 preset drum kits on the Pearl e/MERGE separated into seven categories, and 50
user drum kits can be saved.
The preset drum kits cannot be overwritten. The user drum kits can be adjusted to match
your tastes and then saved.
Tip:
The user category drum kits contain the same drum kits as the preset category drum
kits when initially shipped from the factory.
1. Pressing a category button will let you select a drum kit within that category.
Pressing the same category button again will switch to the next drum kit in that category.
