6.3 Playing the drum kit
Like on an acoustic drum kit, the pads respond to different playing techniques and dynamics. All pads are velocity sensitive. Some
voices change their timbre depending on the punch used.

Drums
With the snare drum we distinguish between Head and Rimshot.
– Head
Strike the head only.
– Rimshot
Simultaneously strike the head and the rim or only the rim of the pad.
n
Cymbals
We distinguish the following cymbal zones:
– Bow
Play in the area between the edge and the bell of the cymbal.
– Bell
Play the bell area of the cymbal.
– Edge
Play at the edge of the cymbal.
– Choke
Choke Play is possible with Crash and Ride cymbals but not with the Hi-hat. To do so, stop the sound of the Crash and
Ride cymbals with the hand at the edge of the cymbal immediately after hitting it.
