10.6 PLAYING A SOUND
Play the drum track Sounds of the active kit by tapping any of the twelve
[PADS]
. <PADS> will briefly flash
when tapped. Each pad is velocity sensitive, which means a gentle rap and a decisive stab on the pad will
produce drum sounds of different intensities.
Use
[FUNCTION]
+
[PADS]
to trig the Sound at the velocity set on the trig page for each track (the VEL
parameter).
The
[TRIG]
keys 1-12 can also be used to play the Sounds of the twelve tracks, also at the velocity set on
the trig page for each track.
Press and hold
[RETRIG]
, then press and hold any of the
[PADS]
to continuously retrig the track Sound for
as long as the pad is held. Play drum rolls in this manner on one or several of the pads, each with its own
assignable retrig settings. Pressure controls retrig velocity. Aftertouch is disabled during retrig. See “11.4
RETRIG MENU” on page 39.
Sounds that are designed for aftertouch play may be played by tapping and then pressing a pad without
lifting your finger in between. Settings controlling this can be found in the SOUND menu. See “10.5 SOUND
PLAYING A SOUND WITH AN EXTERNAL MIDI UNIT
Besides using the
[PADS]
, the Sounds can also be played using an external MIDI unit connected to Analog
Rytm. Which MIDI tracks the voices respond to are set up in the MIDI CHANNELS menu, covered in the
section “13.5.3 MIDI CHANNELS” on page 55.
10.7 EDITING A SOUND
Activate one of the drum tracks for editing by pressing
[TRACK]
+ one of the
[PADS]
. The information bar
on the LCD screen, showing which kit is loaded, will briefly change to show the name of the drum track
Sound. When editing, the MACHINE, Sound and sample settings of the track can be changed, and any
changes made will be stored as part of the active kit.
Adjust the overall volume level of the active drum track with the
LEVEL
knob.
The current MACHINE in use will determine which SYNTH parameters will be available for Sound modula-
tion. Quickly press the first
[PARAMETER]
key, SYNTH, twice to open a menu for MACHINE selection.
Browse through the MACHINE list using the

currently outlined by tapping the pad of the active track. Select the outlined MACHINE by pressing
[YES/

. Exit without switching MACHINE by pressing
[NO/RELOAD]
.
Edit a track Sound by adjusting the parameters found on the PARAMETER pages. Access these pages by
pressing one of the five
[PARAMETER]
page keys. Use the
DATA ENTRY

rameters. For a complete description of the functions of the parameters, please see “APPENDIX A: DRUM
