DTX-PRO DTX-PROX Reference Manual
Pads are only produc-
ing sounds at very high
volumes (i.e., high
velocities)
• Ensure that the “
Gain
” parameter from
MENU/Trigger/Pad Type
or
TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type
is not set too high.
• Adjust the “
Velocity Curve
” parameter from
MENU/Trigger/
Curve
or
TRIGGER/SETTING/Curve
.
• Check the “
TrgVel
” setting in
MENU/Kit Edit/Kit Modifier/Voice/
MessageType
. For example, if this parameter is set to “127,” the
maximum velocity will be produced even when the pad is struck
lightly.
• Ensure that you are using only the recommended Yamaha pads.
Products from other manufacturers can output excessively large
signals.
Pads produce
unintended sounds
• Ensure that trigger setups have been configured correctly.
• If an external MIDI device played from the PRO series module
does not produce the expected sounds, review its voice settings
for the MIDI channel on which the PRO series module is sending
data, and ensure that they are appropriate for the MIDI data
being sent.
• Voices assigned to layers B, C, or D may cause unintended
sounds.
• In some cases where unexpected sounds are produced when
you have connected a two or three-zone pad to any of the

.
• Check the crosstalk setting, min level setting and sensitivity set-
ting.
Sounds are distorted
• Ensure that effects have been set appropriately. Sound can be
distorted with certain combinations of effect type and parameter
settings.
• Ensure that the “
VoiceFilter
” parameter in
MENU/Kit Edit/Voice
is configured properly. Depending on the
VoiceQ
settings (filter
resonance), distortion can be caused.
• Lower the PRO series module’s master volume.
Sounds play endlessly
and do not stop
Ensure that the hold function is not turned on.
Press [EXIT] while on the kit screen (top screen) to stop the KIT
sounds.
Effects cannot be
applied
• Ensure that the [EFFECT] knob is not turned down to minimum.
• Ensure that the effect type is not set to “THRU” or “NO EFFECT.”
• Ensure that the InstSend value is high enough for Effect 1 or
Effect 2.
Effects may not be applied to
the output via Indiv Out. Master
effects will not be applied.
Insertion effects may not be
applied depending on the set-
tings.
The wave tempo does
not change
Wave tempo cannot be changed. It will always play at the original
tempo of the imported file regardless of kit tempo and other set-
tings.
Pad controller does not
work
Pad controllers are not supported.
By pressing the [REC]
button, only one song
