Using a stereo phone cable
q
(included), connect the KP90’s OUTPUT jack
w
to an appropriate input jack on a DTX
Series drum trigger module. Be sure to connect the L-shaped end of the cable to the KP90.
• On the drum trigger module, set the corresponding pad type as a kick pad. Setting of any other pad type
may have unintended consequences such as double triggering (where a single strike produces two dis-
tinct sounds). For more details, refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with the drum trigger module.
• If using the KP90 as a standalone pad with no other pad connected to it, a mono phone cable can also be
used to make this connection to the drum trigger module.

Connecting an additional pad
The PAD INPUT jack
e
provided on the KP90 can be used to add an additional pad (sold separately). To do so, connect
the output connector on the additional pad to the PAD INPUT jack
e
using a mono or stereo phone cable.
• When connecting a drum trigger module and a KP90 having a pad connected via its PAD INPUT jack
e
, the
most suitable jack will depend on the type of module being used. For more details, refer to the Owner’s
Manual that came with the drum trigger module.
• When you hit a pad connected to the PAD INPUT jack
e
, only the main surface (head or pad on the snare/
tom pad, or bow on the hi-hat/cymbal pad) produce sound. No sound will be produced on any other sec-
tion, such as the rim or edge. In addition, special functions using the rim switch (such as choking and mut-
ing) will not supported in such a case.
