Playing the Drum Sounds
Now try playing the drum sounds using free hand
movements to play the pads.
1
With the Play screen active, press [PAD] so that the
button lights.
You do not need to press [PAD] if the indicator is
already lit.
2
Move the RHYTHM fader and MASTER fader to the
positions shown in the figure.
fig.04-020
* Note that raising the faders too far can produce excessive
volume levels and possibly cause injury to listeners’ ears. On
the other hand, lowering the faders too much can make the
drum sounds inaudible.
3
Tap a drum pad.
The sound corresponding to the tapped drum pad
plays. The volume of the drum sound changes in
accordance with how strongly the pads are hit.
• Note that when multiple drum pads are played
simultaneously, the volume of all pads may be at
the same level. This is due to circuitry to detect the
force used in playing the pads.
• When the GUITAR/BASS/MIC2 dial or the MIC1
dial sensitivity is increased, or when a patch that
makes heavy use of drive or distortion in the insert
effects is selected, the sound of the pad being
tapped may shake the internal electronic circuits,
which may cause noise in sounds sent to the
headphones or LINE OUT.
If this occurs, adjust the dial to lower the
sensitivity or turn off the insert effects.
The volume of a drum sound is determined by the force
used in tapping the drum pads, with the volume
divided into five levels.
Maximum : Sounds are played at maximum volume.
(MIDI velocity value of 127)
Strong : Sounds are played at high volume.
(MIDI velocity value of 100)
Medium : Sounds are played at normal volume.
(MIDI velocity value of 70)
Weak : Sounds are played at low volume.
(MIDI velocity value of 40)
Minimum : Sounds are played at minimum volume.
(MIDI velocity value of 20)
