Matching Trigger Inputs with
Connected Pads

Since each drum pad has its own characteristics, you need to
appropriately set the trigger inputs to make most of the
connected pads. The DTXTREME IIs features six different
trigger sets for typical combinations of pads. Select the set
that best matches your drum kit.

1.

Press the UTILITY button. Then press the Page button
(

▼

) several times until the [UT 6] SYSTEM TRIGGER

page appears.

2.

Select a trigger set (TrgSet) from the six presets. If you
purchased DTXTREME IIs with a recommended pad set,
one of the six presets (type1 to type6) will perfectly match
your setup.

n

“Any” specified pad will not always produce all sounds available.
For more information, refer to “Trigger Connections” (page 16).

3.

When you complete the setting, press the EXIT/NO
button and return to PLAY mode.

Now you are ready to start playing with the DTXTREME IIs
drum kit. Go to the Play Section to learn some of the
performance functions of the DTXTREME IIs.

n

Preset trigger sets (type1 to type6) are used for the Preset kits (P1 to
P90). When you play one of the User kits (U1 to U40 or C1 to
C99), use your own trigger set copied from a preset or created from
scratch. For details, refer to Trigger Settings (page 36).
