INSTRUMENT
The Instrument menu contains all sound options. You can create your own drum kit presets and
modify the drum kit presets. For example, change the individual pad sounds, tune them and add
effects. It is also possible to add equalizers and compressors to each pad and to select a second
sound for each channel. The permanently installed drum kit presets are a good starting point.
All available options are part of the
drum kit parameters
and affect the level of the pads and pad
components. Changes to the settings are saved by saving the drum kit.
First select the desired input channel and the zone of the pad to be able to edit the parameters.
When you make changes to a preset, they are not automatically saved. Changes are
marked with an asterisk
[*]
next to the drum kit name. Save your changes under:
[KIT] ->
[Select a user preset slot] -> [F2]
. If you do not save and change the drum kit preset, all
changes will be reset to the last saved state.
