hd4/rm4: Drum Width

000...100 (90)

As this value is increased the pitch of the drum sound 
will become lower and the overtones will also change, 
producing a rougher sound. The effect is similar to 
greatly loosening the skin of the drum.

hd5/rm5: Pressure Decay

–50...50 (50)

This parameter adjusts the decay time according to the 
amount of pressure that is applied to the head.

hd6/rm6: Jingle Pitch

000...100 (39)

This parameter adjusts the pitch of the bell sound.

hd7/rm7: Jingle Decay

000...100 (47)

This parameter adjusts the decay time of the bell sound.

hd8/rm8: Brightness 2

000...100 (100)

As this value is increased, the metallic resonance will 
disappear from the bell sound, resulting in a sound like a 
shaker or cabasa.

23 Don–Hya

Each time you strike, four drum notes will sound in suc-
cession. Soft strikes will produce four notes of the same 
pitch, but stronger strikes will cause the pitch of each 
note to change, and since the pitch of each note is 
smoothly connected by portamento, the result will be a 
complex, undulating phrase. In addition, you can press 
the head to produce a sustaining noisy sound that 
smoothly changes in pitch and tone color.
Tune affects only the drum sound. 
You can specify the rhythm pattern, and make various 
adjustments to the tone color of the drum sound and 
metallic sound. 

Tune (70), Decay (84)

hd1/rm1: Seq. Note Volume

000...100 (50)

This parameter adjusts the volume level of the muted 
notes in the pattern selected by 'Motif Select'.

hd2/rm2: Motif Select

0...7 (7)

Of the four consecutive drum notes, you can select one 
of eight (0–7) types of muting patterns for the three notes 
following the initial strike. Since the Seq. Note Volume 
parameter allows you to set the volume of muted notes, 
you can create rhythm patterns by making the muted 
notes softer than unmuted notes. Select one of the fol-
lowing patterns of muted notes. (A dot indicates a muted 
note, and an x indicates no mute.)

hd3/rm3: Delay Time

000...100 (20)

This parameter adjusts the delay time (tempo) of the 
three delayed notes.

hd4/rm4: Portamento

000...100 (69)

This parameter adjusts the amount of portamento that 
connects each drum note.

hd5/rm5: Brightness

000...100 (38)

This parameter adjusts the tone color of the drum sound. 
As this value is increased the sound will become more 
metallic and have a longer resonance.

hd6/rm6: Noise–Color

000...100 (40)

This parameter adjusts the color of the noise that is heard 
when you apply pressure to the head. Increasing this 
value will produce an aggressive sound with a boosted 
high-frequency range.

hd7/rm7: Noise–Level

000...100 (62)

This parameter adjusts the volume of noise that is heard 
when you apply pressure to the head.

hd8/rm8: Pitch Interval

000...100 (100)

This parameter adjusts how much the drum sound's pitch 
will change randomly.

24 Mariko

This algorithm produces a normal tom-type drum sound. 
In addition, striking the outer area of the head will pro-
duce marimba-like wood percussion sounds that will 
have different pitches in response to the force of your 
strike. In addition to this, striking the rim will produce a 
high sound with a short decay, similar to a xylophone or 
glass percussion. 
Tune adjusts the pitch of the drum sound. You can adjust 
the pitch and volume of the marimba sound, etc.  

Tune (53), Decay (78)

hd1/rm1: Tone Pitch

000...100 (14)

This parameter adjusts the standard pitch of the marimba 
sound that plays when you strike the outer area of the 
head.

hd2/rm2: Pitch Response

000...100 (100)

This parameter adjusts how much the force of your strike 
will change the pitch.

hd3/rm3: Pressure Pitch

000...100 (40)

This parameter adjusts how much the amount of pressure 
that's applied to the head will raise the pitch.

hd4/rm4: Tone Level

000...100 (100)

This parameter adjusts the volume level of the marimba 
sound.

hd5/rm5: Resonance Balance

000...100 (70)

This parameter adjusts how much the marimba sound 
resonates with the drum shell.

hd6/rm6: Brightness

000...100 (19)

When this value is increased, the sound will become 
brighter with an overall boost in the high range.

hd7/rm7: Drum Type1

000...100 (86)

When this value is increased, the drum sound will 
become lower in pitch and have a rougher tone. The 
effect of this parameter changes greatly depending on the 
settings of the other parameters.

hd8/rm8: Drum Type2

000...100 (44)

This parameter adjusts the tone of the drum sound.
