RETRIGCANCL (Retrigger Cancel)

Retrigger
Sometimes in the case of a snare drum or other drum to
which an acoustic drum trigger is attached, sound will occur
at point “A” (as desired) but will also occur again at point
“B” (undesired) due to distortions in the waveform. This
occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform.
Retrigger Cancel detects such distortion in and prevents
retriggering from occurring.

1.
Press [SETUP], then [F1 (TRIG)], and then [F2
(ADVNCD)].
[SETUP] lights, and the “TRIGGER ADVANCED”
screen appears.
2.
Press CURSOR [
] or [
] to move the cursor to
“RETRIGCANCL.”
3.
Strike a pad.
The settings screen for the struck pad appears and an
input indicator will move in the right part of the screen.
4.
Press [INC/+] or [DEC/-] or rotate the VALUE dial to
make the setting.
While repeatedly striking the drum, raise the
“RETRIGCANCEL” value until retriggering no longer
occurs. Raising this value will strengthen retrigger
canceling, but will also mean that notes may be lost
during fast playing (a drum roll for example) Set this to
as low a value as possible.
RETRIGCANCL: 1–16
MASK TIME
On a kick pad, for example, if the beater bounces back and
strikes the pad a second time immediately after the intended
stroke—or, like with acoustic drums if you leave the bass
drum beater against the head—it can cause a single strike to
“double trigger” (two sounds instead of the intended one).
The Mask Time setting helps to prevent such problems. Once
a pad has been hit, any additional trigger signals occurring
within the specified “MASKTIME” (0–64 msec) will be
ignored.

1.
Press [SETUP], then [F1 (TRIG)], and then [F2
(ADVNCD)].
[SETUP] lights, and the “TRIGGER ADVANCED”
screen appears.
2.
Press CURSOR [
] or [

“MASK TIME.”
3.
Strike a pad.
The settings screen for the struck pad appears and an
input indicator will move in the right part of the screen.
4.
Press [INC/+] or [DEC/-] or rotate the VALUE dial to
make the setting.
While playing the kick pad, try kicking and leaving the
beater against the pad. If you hear the second note being
triggered, raise the “MASK TIME.” But in doing so, it
also means that if you play very fast, certain notes may
be lost.
MASK TIME: 0–64ms (4ms steps)
