The DD-9 contains a total of 55 high quality

turn the SELECTOR dial until the desired
voice number appears in the LED display.
(See the supplied Voice List or page 33.)

Voice numbers cycle from 00 to 54 to 00
when striking the percussion pad.
The 

 PAD ASSIGN button decreases the

voice number and the 

 PAD ASSIGN

button increases the voice number.

4. Release the 

 or 

 PAD ASSIGN button.

A new voice is now assigned to the desig-
nated percussion pad.

sion pads to the desired voice(s).
