Chapter 1 Creating Your Own Drum Kit (Kit Edit)

Adjusting the Volume of the Pad (Level)

Adjusts the volume of the instrument. Raising the value will increase the volume. With a setting of “0,” no sound is produced.

Make the adjustment here when correcting the volume balance between instruments.

The pedal hi-hat volume is set in “Pedal HH Vol (Pedal Hi- Hat Volume)” (KIT/COMMON/Pedal HH Vol; p. 66).

Level: 0–127

Setting the Pan Position (Pan)

This adjusts the instrument’s pan setting (the perceived position of the sound between left and right speakers).

Pan settings apply to both the head and rim. The rim settings value appears in parentheses. If either the head or rim settings are changed, the settings for the other are

changed automatically.

• This setting is applied only when connected in stereo.

Pan: L15–CENTER–R15, RANDOM, ALTERNATE

L15:Sound is positioned at the extreme left.

CENTER: Sound is positioned in the center.

R15:Sound is positioned at the extreme right.

RANDOM: The panning changes randomly each time the pad is struck.

ALTERNATE: The panning alternately switches between left and right each time the pad is struck.

Adjusting the Pitch (Pitch)

Adjusts the pitch of the instrument. The pitch is raised the higher the value is set. When set to “0,” the sound is played at the instrument’s default value.

For some instruments, raising or lowering the value beyond a certain point may not produce further change.

Pitch: -480–+480

Adjusting the Decay (Length of Sound) (Decay)

Adjusts the decay of the instrument’s sound. Higher settings will result in a longer decay time. When set to “0,” the sound is played at the instrument’s default value.

For some instruments, raising or lowering the value beyond a certain point may not produce further change.
