5.3 TRIGGER PARAMETER SELECTION
To compensate for differences in transducer outputs, the crosstalk, decay time, and noise floor level for each trigger can be set independently. These are Global settings that apply to all Drum Sets.
1.The second Ext Trig page shows four parameters. Example:
TRIG:02 XTALK:30 DCAY:10
NOISE:00
As with the other screens, the cursor buttons move between the three parameters.
5.4 TRIGGER CROSSTALK SELECTION
If several pads are mounted on one stand or rack it is possible to experience interaction or "crosstalk" problems. Adjustment of the XTALK parameter makes it possible to resolve these problems.
Note: In configurations where some pads are individually mounted, the default setting of 30 may be sufficient, making it unnecessary to adjust this parameter. In that case, skip this section and go on to 5.5 DCAY Control Selection.
1.After selecting the desired Trigger place the cursor under the XTALK parameter.
Example:
TRIG:03 XTALK:30
DCAY:10 NOISE:00
2.Turn the Data wheel to select the desired level of crosstalk suppression necessary to stop the problem pad from triggering. (00 is minimum, 99 maximum) This level will depend entirely on your current pad or drum configuration.
Remember: When experiencing an interaction problem, the trigger that needs adjustment is the pad that is false triggering, not the pad being struck. One easy way to remedy an interaction problem is to "silence" the pad(s) which are not "false triggering".
Example: Suppose you hit the snare pad and the tom 1 pad triggers.
1.First, go to the MIX page and reduce the volume of the snare pad to 00. Now when you hit the snare pad you won't hear it, but you will hear the tom 1 pad when it false triggers.
2.Next, press the EXT TRIG button twice (which gets you to the XTALK parameter page) and select the tom 1 trigger to edit.
