Element Description
Grind Adjusts the grittiness of the “aero” component of the sound,
measured as a percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to
100.0% (default: 45.0%). Low values produce a boomy
reverberation. High values result in a crushed, digital “air”
squashed into the drum sound. Note that this parameter will only
have an effect if Amount is set to a non-zero value (see below).
Amount Controls the amount of air or grit in the kick sound, measured as a
percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to 100.0% (default:
20.0%).

Element Description
SCALE Section
Velocity Adjusts the velocity response of the drum. Available values range
from -100.0% to 100.0% (default value). At zero (mid course), the
drum is played at full velocity, no matter how hard you hit the keys
(or pads). From that mid position, by turning the knob to the right
you increase the positive velocity response and make the drum more
sensitive to the velocity at which you hit the keys/pads. From the
mid position, turning the knob to the left as the inverse effect: the
harder you hit the key/pad, the softer the resulting drum sound will
be.
