■Selecting output assignments
To change the output destination for the sound of each pad
note that the vertical lines indicate the TRIGGER INPUT
number, and the horizontal lines indicate the OUTPUT
choices. The black dots indicate the OUTPUT assignment
corresponding to each sound.
fig.06-04
Procedure
1. Press [CONTROL ROOM]-[F1 (MIXER)]-[F3 (OUTPUT)].
The “OUTPUT” page will appear.
2. Strike the pad that you wish to edit.
The cursor will move to the vertical line (TRIGGER INPUT
jack) of the pad that you struck.
3. Use the VALUE dial, [INC/DEC] or [CURSOR] to make
the setting.

Abbreviations in the display screen

OUTPUT jacks
M=MASTER
1=DIRECT 1
2=DIRECT 2
3=DIRECT 3
* The volume of the DIRECT 1, DIRECT 2 and DIRECT 3 jacks
is not affected by the master volume control located in the upper
right of the front panel ([MASTER]).

Applications

You can also use the DIRECT outputs (6) in mono by select-
ing (for example) DIRECT 1, and then panning the chosen
sound hard right or left (R15/L15) (stereo location; p. 90). If
you are processing all sounds externally, you can also use
the MASTER out in this way, giving you 8 individual mono
outs.

Output Separation: 76 dB (min.)

(MASTER L -> DIRECT L, MASTER R -> DIRECT R): 45 dB (min.)
(DIRECT L -> Other DIRECT L, DIRECT R -> Other DIRECT R): 45 dB (min.)

Controlling variations in volume(Compressor)
10 compressors are provided (Triggers 1-10 only)
Compression is used to “smooth” volume peaks, preventing
“overloads” and as it will also change the character and tone
of the sound in response to the playing dynamics, it’s anoth-
er useful tool in creating YOUR sound.
fig.06-05
Procedure
1. Press [CONTROL ROOM]-[F2 (COMP)].
The “COMPRESSOR/LIMITER” page will appear.
2. Strike the pad that you wish to edit.
The setting page for the pad you struck will appear.
3. Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to the parameter that
you wish to set.
4. Use [INC/DEC] or the VALUE dial to make the setting.
In this page, [F1] will turn the compressor on/off. Also,
pressing the [F2][F3][F4] buttons will move the cursor direct-
ly to “Attack,” “Release,” or “Output.”
Parameters
ATTACK (Attack time): 0.05–50 msec
Adjusts the volume of the attack (the beginning of the
sound).
RELEAS (Release time): 0.05–2000 msec
Adjusts the release time of the sound.
OUTPUT (Output Level): -60– +12 dB
Adjusts the volume of the sound processed by the compres-
sor. Ideally the volume should be about the same whether
the compressor is on or off.
Threshold (Threshold): -∞, -99–0
When the input exceeds the level that you specify here, the
compressor will begin to hold down the volume.
Ratio (Compression Ratio): 1:1–90:1, ∞:1
This decides the degree of volume compression, expressed
as a ratio relative to the original (input) sound.
