SPLINE:

Extreme changes are made in response to the force used to strike the pad.

LOUD1, LOUD2:

Changes made in response to the striking force are minor, maintaining a volume level at which it is easy to play. When using drum triggers, these settings help maintain stable levels.

Eliminate Crosstalk Between Pads (Crosstalk Cancel)

When two pads are mounted on the same stand, the vibration produced by hitting one pad may trigger the sound from another pad unintentionally (This is called crosstalk.) You can avoid this problem by adjusting Crosstalk Cancel on the pad that is sounding inadvertently.

If the value is set too high, then when two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is struck less forcefully will not sound. So be careful and set this parameter to the minimum value required to prevent such crosstalk. With a setting of “OFF,” crosstalk prevention does not function.

In some cases, you can prevent crosstalk between two pads you have connected by increasing the distance between the pads.

Example:

When hitting a snare pad, the hi-hat cymbal also sounds

Set the “Xtalk Cancel (Crosstalk Cancel) for the pad being used for the hi-hat while striking the snare pad. Striking the snare pad, raise the “CROSSTALK” setting for the hi-hat cymbal pad from “OFF” through “20,” “25.”.. until crosstalk no longer occurs. As this value is raised, the hi-hat cymbal pad will be less prone to receive crosstalk from other pads.

The pad’s settings screen is not switched when “Note Chase” is set to “OFF” (SETUP/MIDI COMMON/Note Chase; p. 57, p. 97).

Parameter Settings

(TRIGGER ADVANCED)

The following parameters (Advanced Trigger Parameters) are automatically set to the most efficient values for each pad when you select the TRIGGER TYPE (SETUP/TRIG BASIC/ TrigTyp; p. 69), and don’t require adjustment, except if you experience any of the problems that are discussed below.

1.While holding down [SHIFT], press [EDIT (SETUP)].
