Performing
After powering up, the digital drum will be in KIT menu (KIT
indicator ON ). The display should look like this:
Use the [ - ] and [ + ] buttons to select the active kit.
There are 45 kits in the digital drum:
30 preset kits (Kits 01-30)
15 user kits (Kits 31-45), the parameter display area will
display as "U31~U45", with an additional letter "U".
Pressing the Pad Select buttons allows you to preview the
current kit (fixed velocity).
Hit the pads to play the current kit.
Similar to an acoustic drum kit, the digital drum responds
differently to various playing techniques and dynamics. All the
pads are velocity sensitive. And some voices change timbre
depending on the striking force.
Drum Pad Head or Rim shot
The digital drum pad detects head and rim shots (rim shots
trigger the rim voice).
Cymbal Bow shot and Rim shot
The digital drum cymbals detect bow and rim shot.
Both Ride and Crash cymbals have cymbal choke. But hi-hat
does not have the cymbal choke. Choking the crash/ride edge
with the hand immediately after hitting the crash/ride mutes the
crash/ride sound.
Hi-Hat
The Hi-Hat sound varies depending on the position of the
Hi-Hat pedal:
Strike the Hi-Hat pad without pressing the
pedal.
Strike the Hi-Hat pad with the pedal
pressed halfway down.
Strike the Hi-Hat pad with the pedal
pressed completely down.
Press the pedal completely down without
striking the pad.
Press the pedal completely down and
release it immediately.
