Trouble Shooting
Double-triggers are produced.
Are you using a sensor made by a manufacturer other than Yamaha? If the signal is too large, double-triggers may
be produced.
Is the head causing irregular vibrations? It may be necessary to mute the head.
Is the sensor attached close to the center of the head? Move the sensor closer to the rim (above the bearing).
(m P. 1 1)
Is the sensor in contact with anything else?
Pads with output or sensitivity control volumes should be adjusted (lowered).
Try increasing the rejection parameter. However, a setting a value that is too high may cause the sound to be
muted when another drum is hit at the same time. (m P. 37 [1-4. Self-Rejection, Rejection])
Use the self-rejection. (m P. 37 [1-4. Self-Rejection, Rejection])
Change the INPUT ATTENUATION setting on the rear panel. (m P. 9 )
Cross-talk is produced.
Try placing the sensors (DT10, etc.) away from nearby drums.
Is the gain set too high? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity]).
Try increasing the rejection parameter. However, a setting a value that is too high may cause the sound to be
muted when another drum is hit at the same time. (m P. 37 [1-4. Self-Rejection, Rejection])
If cross-talk is produced with a specific trigger input, try using specific rejection. (m P. 37 [1-5. Specific Rejection])
Sounds are cut when you play continuously.
The maximum polyphony of 32 voices might be exceeded. In the Drum Kit Voice Edit mode’s [2-3. Alternate
Group, Key Assign Mode] (m P. 43) set the “Key” value to “semi” or “mono”.
When 2 pads (drums) are played only 1 sound is heard.
Raise the gain setting of the pad (drum) that is not producing sound. (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
Lower the rejection setting of the pad that is not producing sound. (m P. 37 [1-4. Self-Rejection, Rejection])
Are both pads assigned to the same group in the Drum Kit Voice Edit mode’s [2-3. Alternate Group, Key Assign
Mode] display (m P. 43)?
The sound is always loud.
Is the minimum velocities minimum value set too high? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
Are you using a proper velocity curve? (m P. 37 [1-3. Velocity Curve])
Are you using a sensor made by a manufacturer other than Yamaha? Depending upon the manufacturer output
levels might be too large.
Change the INPUT ATTENUATION setting on the rear panel. (m P. 9 )
The DTXPRESS does not receive any switch or trigger signals.
If you can access the Utility mode, do a factory reset. The DTXPRESS will reset to its factory settings. (m P. 53 [1-
6. Factory Reset])
Turn the [POWER SW] OFF then ON while holding the [PAGEs] and [PAGEt] buttons. The DTXPRESS will reset
to its factory settings.
The sound will not stop.
Some voices have very long release times when the [2-5. Key Off Enable] (m P. 44) “key off” parameter is set to
“disable”. To temporarily stop the sound, hold the [SHIFT] button and press the [VOICE] button.
