INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Kick Pad KP65.
The KP65 is designed for use as a bass drum trigger pad in an electric drum system. Its large pad
surface and pedal attachment allows use of a double foot pedal system. Also, utilizing the exter-
nal pad input jack it is possible to send two trigger signals, one from the KP65 and another from an
external pad connected to the KP65, to a DTX Series Drum Trigger Module (DTXPRESS/DTX/
DTXTREME) through a single stereo cable (supplied).
To get the most use out of your KP65, please read this Owner's Manual carefully. After reading,
please keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.

Inside This Package
Before setup, please make sure that all of the items listed below are present and ac-
counted for. If anything is missing, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased
the unit.
* To customers who purchased a pads set (DTPK95M, DTPK95MSP etc.), please refer to
the attached “
Accessories List
” sheet included with each pads set when confirming pack-
age contents.
■
Replacing Worn Parts
• Some of the parts used on the KP65 will wear or their quality will deteriorate after extended use (pad
rubber, cushion material used inside the pad, connecting jacks, etc.). The life of parts will vary depending
upon the circumstances under which the KP65 is used.
• When replacing worn parts, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased the KP65.
Adjust the KP65's trigger output level. Rotate the LEVEL Adjustment Knob to the right (+) to
increase output level and to the left (–) to decrease output level. The pad's output level
should be adjusted in regards to how hard you hit the pad, to adjust the pad's dynamic
range, or to better match the KP65 to the type of DTX Series Drum Trigger Module
(DTXPRESS/DTX/DTXTREME) you are using.
■
Output Level (LEVEL) Adjustment
Adjusting the Voice Volume
To change the volume of the voice assigned to the KP65, use the [VOICE] edit mode in
the DTX Series Drum Trigger Module. Please refer to the Owner's Manual that came
with your module for more information.
NOTE:
When the KP65 is used with a DTX Series Drum Trigger Module, enter the module's Trigger Edit
Mode and set the [PAD GAIN] (pad input level) parameter so that the display reads 90-95% when
the pad is struck ff. Refer to the Owner's Manual that came with your module for more information.
Too high of an output level may result in problems such as a narrow dynamic range (the difference
between strong and weak notes), double triggers (multiple triggers produced by a single stroke on
the pad), etc.
