drum kit (V-EDIT)
Electronic drum sounds consist of “tone” and “noise.” These
instruments can be assigned only to specific trigger inputs.
For details on instrument assignments, refer to p. 136.
* With electronic drums, selecting an instrument for the head will
assign the same instrument to the rim. It is not possible to
change the rim to a different instrument.
