6Refer to the explanations below for the “Sample Setup tab” and “Voice/Mixer tab,” and make the desired settings.

The parameters are located in the Sample Setup tab and the Voice/Mixer tab.

7As necessary, repeat steps 46to set the parame- ters for each key.

To change the drum kit name, use the “Rename Drum Kit” page menu command (p.38).

8If you wish to save the edited drum kit into inter- nal memory, be sure to Write the drum kit.

If you turn off the power without writing, your edits will be lost (p.39).

Sample Setup tab

Assign

Normally you will check this. The settings of each parameter will be valid. If this is unchecked, drum- sample parameters will not be assigned to that key. Playing that key will sound the settings of the key to its right, at a pitch one semitone lower. Use this when you wish to play a tom or cymbal with the same settings but with a different pitch.

Velocity Sample SW Lo Hi

You can specify different drumsamples for High Drumsample and Low Drumsample, and use velocity (keyboard playing dynamics) to switch the drumsam- ple that will sound. This is referred to as velocity drumsample switching.

This function is similar to the velocity multisample switching of a program (p.46 “About High/ Low”).

If you are not using this function, set the “Velocity Sample SW Lo → Hi” value to 001. When you play, only the High Drumsample will sound.

Bank

ROM: Select drumsamples from the TRITON’s inter- nal ROM memory.

RAM: Select samples that were sampled in Sampling mode or loaded in Disk mode.

EXB*: Select drumsamples from a separately sold EXB-PCM series option board.

Some EXB-PCM series boards do not contain drumsamples.

About ROM drumsamples

The TRITON contains 413 drumsamples in its internal ROM memory.

When you press the popup button, the ROM drum- samples will be displayed in 15 different categories. You can use the tabs located at the left and right to select a category, and choose drumsamples from the selected category in the LCD screen.

For the drumsample names, refer to the separate Voice Name List.

Voice/Mixer tab

Exclusive Group

Make this setting when you want to group related drumsamples together.

For example if the “KEY” to which a open hi-hat and a closed hi-hat drumsample are assigned are set to the same exclusive group number, they will be grouped so that the open hi-hat and closed hi-hat can not be sounded simultaneously, ensuring that the hi-hat per- formance will sound natural.

BUS Select (IFX Indiv.Out Assign)

The drumsample assigned to the “KEY” can be sent to an insert effect or to one of the AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL) 1–4 jacks.

For example you can specify IFX1 for snare drums and IFX2 for kick drums, so that different types of drums are sent to insert effects 1 and 2. Alternatively, you can set this to 1–4, 1/2 or 3/4 so that only specific drum sounds are sent to the AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVID- UAL) 1–4 jacks.

These settings are valid if “Use DKit Setting” (Program P8: Routing tab) is checked in the Routing tab of Pro- gram P8 for the program that uses this drum kit (p.24, 147, 148 in the Parameter Guide).

Pan

This sets the panning. This setting is valid if “Use DKit Setting” (Program P4: Amp1 Lvl/Pan tab) is checked.

Send 1 (MFX1), Send 2 (MFX2)

These set the send levels to the master effects. This set- ting is valid if “Use DKit Setting” (Program P8: Rout- ing tab) is checked.

Other parameters

The parameters in the Sample Setup tab are set inde- pendently for the High Drumsample and the Low Drumsample. The parameters in the Voice/Mixer tab apply to both the High and Low Drumsamples.

If you wish to use the settings from another “KEY,” you can use the “Copy Key Setup” page menu com- mand. For details on each parameter (p.123 in the Parameter Guide).
