Using the RMP-5 with Additional Pads
Mask Time Example when using a kick trigger pad; if the beater bounces back
and hits the pad a second time immediately after the intended stroke
or if you leave the bass drum beater against the pad—it can cause
“double triggering” (two sounds instead of the intended one). The
Mask Time setting helps to prevent such problems. Once a pad has
been hit, additional trigger signals occurring within the specified
Mask Time (0–64 msec) will be ignored.
If set to a high value, then sounds may be omitted when you
intentionally play a very fast phrase (like with a double bass drum
pedal). Set this to as low a value as possible.

* If two or more sounds are being produced when you strike the pad just
once, then adjust Retrigger Cancel.
Rim Sensitivity When using a pad capable of playing rim shots, you can adjust the
Rim Sensitivity.
Setting this to a higher value makes it easier to trigger the sound
assigned to the rim. If set to “OFF,” striking the rim will produce the
sound assigned to the head. If the value is set too high, then striking
the head, may also trigger the sound assigned to the rim.
* This setting can be made only with the following Trigger Type (p. 21)
settings selected (refer to Rim Gain).
Rim Gain This adjusts the relation between playing velocity on the rim/edge
and the resulting volume level.
* This setting adjusts only the rim. Adjust the balance between velocity
and volume for the overall pad with the “Sensitivity” setting (p. 23).
* This setting can be made only with the following Trigger Type (p. 21)
settings selected.
* This can be adjusted only when the Input Mode is set to .
