When you switch on the ddrum4 SE module, it will default to the Palette mode, indicated by ‘PAL’ in
the

button with which you can quickly choose one of five sound setups. You can also program your
own selection of sounds in the Palette. See
Chapter "6. Panel reference” on page 18

more details regarding programming.
Press the

ent instrument groups.
IMPORTANT! All editing is automatically stored in the Palette memory. Please be careful when you
start to explore the different possibilities and parameters of the ddrum4 SE module. If you do this
while being in Palette mode, the ddrum4 SE will store every changes you make. Until you are familiar

If you turn the

clockwise from the Palette mode, the
D

will change from ‘PAL’ to
a ‘P.’ or an ‘F.’ followed by a number. This is the Kit mode. The number identifies the 99 different drum
kits that are available in the ddrum4 SE module. Keep turning the
R

are in the memory locations 27 to 99, indicated with an ‘F’. and a number in the display, are the ROM
factory kits. The factory kits can be edited but you can only store any edits or sound selections to the ‘P.’
(1-26) kits.
