System Settings

Settings that affect the entire RMP-12 are called “system settings.”

1.

Hold down the [BEAT] button for a while.

The SYSTEM icon will blink in the display.

2.

Turn the select knob to choose the parameter that
you want to edit, and then press the select knob.

The value of the parameter you’re editing will blink.
For details, refer to the section that explains each parameter.

3.

Turn the select knob to edit the value, and then
press the select knob.

4.

When you’ve finished editing, turn the select knob
to choose “[OK]” and then press the select knob.

If you decide to discard the changes you made, turn the
select knob to choose “[CANCEL]” and then press the select
knob.
You will exit the editing screen.

As an alternative to selecting “[OK]” in step 4, you can
confirm the change and exit the system setting screen
by pressing the [BEAT] button or a [1]–[4] button.

The changes you’ve made will be lost if you turn off the
power without exiting the editing screen.
In step 2 of “How to make system settings,” choose “LCDcont.”
Specify a value of 1–10. Higher values will make the display
darker.
In step 2 of “How to make system settings,” choose “LineVol.”
Specify a value of 0–10. Higher values will increase the volume
sent to the OUTPUT jack.
In step 2 of “How to make system settings,” choose “Sens.”
This sets the sensitivity of the head, adjusting the way in which
your striking force affects the loudness of the sound.
Specify a value of -5–+9. Higher values will increase the
sensitivity, allowing loud volumes to be produced even when you
strike the pad softly. Lower values will decrease the sensitivity, so
that the volumes produced will be low even if you strike the pad
strongly.
In step 2 of “How to make system settings,” choose “RimAdj” or
“RimGain.”

RimAdj (Rim adjust)

This adjusts how easy it will be to play rim shots.
Specify a value from -9 to +9. If the rim sound is produced
inadvertently when you strike the head strongly, decreasing this
value will solve the problem. If this value is too low, it will be
difficult to sound the rim instrument.

RimGain (Rim gain)

This sets the rim sensitivity, adjusting the way in which your
striking force affects the loudness of the sound.
Specify a value from -9 to +9. Higher values will allow loud sounds
to be produced even when you strike the rim softly. Lower values
will produce softer sounds even if you strike the rim strongly.

If the “Sens,” “RimAdj,” and “RimGain” values are set too
high, the RMP-12’s sensor may respond to loud sounds
near the pad (such as a strong rim shot on an acoustic
drum), inadvertently causing sound to be produced.
