Page 6: Set Triggering Mode (Asn Mode)
The display shows
ASN MODE (short for Assignment Mode), the currently selected pad
number, and the mode assigned to that pad.
To change the mode associated with a given pad:
1.
Press the pad (the display will show the
pad number).
2. Enter the desired mode with the INC/DEC
buttons or number buttons 1-4.
3. When the display confirms your choice,
either store the edited Drum Set or do
more assignments by tapping another pad
to select it.
Background Each mode affects triggering in a
different way:
Multi: When hitting a pad repeatedly, each hit will cause the sound to go through its entire
decay. This is useful with cymbals, since early strikes will continue to decay as you play later
strikes.
Single: When hitting a pad repeful with many percussion sounds (such as tambourine, agogo,
etc.).
Group 1 and 2: Pads assigned to a particular group (1 or 2) will cut each other off if a group
pad is struck while another pad assigned to the same group continues to sound. The classic
use of this is with hi-hats; a closed high-hat will cut off an open hi-hat, and hitting an open hi-
hat sound will cut off a closed hi-hat.
The iDM02 can play up to 16 voices at a time, so it's possible to run out of voices if you play a
flurry of notes and have lots of pads in the Multi assign mode. If 16 sounds are playing and
you ask the iDM02 to play another one, the sound that's closest to finishing its decay cycle
will be "stolen" so that the most recent sound can be played. In practice, it's difficult (and
usually not artistically desirable!) to create drum parts so complex that voice-stealing
becomes a problem. However, if this is a problem, try assigning all the toms to a group so that
they only require one voice at a time.
Page 7: Save Drum Set (Save Set)
The display shows
SAVE SET? , the currently
selected Drum Set number (location), and a
two-digit number that's the same as the
currently selected Drum Set.
To save the Drum Set to the existing location,
press PLAY. The display will say
DRUMSET
SAVED .
To save the Drum Set to a different location, enter the new Drum Set number with the
INC/DEC or number buttons (allowable range is 00-49), then press PLAY.
If you were editing a Preset Drum Set and want to save it, you will be given the option to save
it to a User Drum Set since you cannot overwrite a Preset Drum Set. This technique can also
copy one Drum Set to a different Drum Set. Also, remember that if you change Patterns
before saving your Drum Set, all of your edits will be lost.
