Using a stereo phone cable
q
(included), connect the KP128’s OUTPUT jack
w
to an appropriate input jack on a DTX
Series drum trigger module. Be sure to connect the L-shaped end of the cable to the KP128.
• On the drum trigger module, set the corresponding pad type as a kick pad. Setting of any other pad type may
have unintended consequences such as double triggering (where a single strike produces two distinct sounds).
For more details, refer to the Owner’s Manual included with the drum trigger module and/or to the page for your
specific product on the Yamaha website.
• If using the KP12
8
as a standalone pad with no other pad connected to it, a mono phone cable can also be used
to make this connection to the drum trigger module.
Connecting an additional pad
The PAD INPUT jack
e
provided on the KP128 can be used to add an additional pad (sold separately). To do so, connect
the output connector on the additional pad to the PAD INPUT jack
e
using a mono or stereo phone cable.
• When connecting a drum trigger module and a KP12
8
having a pad connected via its PAD INPUT jack
e
, the
most suitable jack will depend on the type of module being used. For more details, refer to the Owner’s Manual
included with the drum trigger module and/or to the page for your specific product on the Yamaha website.
• When you hit a pad connected to the PAD INPUT jack
e
, only the main surface (head on the snare/tom pad, or
bow on the hi-hat/cymbal pad) produce sound. No sound will be produced on any other section, such as the rim
or edge. In addition, special functions using the rim switch (such as choking and muting) will not supported in
such a case.
