1–9: Set Up Pads
There are eight velocity-sensitive trigger pads below
the LCD screen. These look like drum machine pads,
and playing drum sounds is certainly one use for
them.
However, they can also play up to eight-note chords on
any sound–not just drums. The pads even remember
the velocities of the individual notes within the chord,
as well as the notes themselves. Finally, each Pad can
be assigned to a different MIDI channel, if desired.
These settings are stored independently for each Song.
You can assign notes to the pads directly from the
keyboard and front-panel controls, without using this
page at all. Alternatively, you can enter notes and
velocities using the parameters on this page.
Regardless of how the notes were first assigned, you
can edit their values here.
For more information, including step-by-step
instructions and usage tips, see “Drum & Chord Pads”
on page 48 of the Operation Guide.
1–9a: Pad Chords
Pad 1
MIDI Channel
[Ch01…Ch16, Tch]
This sets the pad’s MIDI output channel. You can set
this to either a specific channel (1-16), or to follow the
channel of the selected Track.
Ch01…Ch16:
The pad will transmit on the selected
MIDI channel. As shown in the diagram “Pads and
MIDI Channel,” below, you can:
• Use this in conjunction with the Track
MIDI
Channel
setting, to route a pad to a specific Track.
For more information, see “MIDI Channel” on
page 464.
• Use this with the KARMA Module
Input Channel
setting, to generate a phrase or other KARMA
function when you play a specific pad. For more
information, see “Input Channel” on page 376.
Tch:
With this setting, the pads will follow the
MIDI
channel
of the currently selected Track.

Notes 1-8
[Off, C–1…G9 / 001…127]
These parameters let you edit the 8 notes assigned to
each pad, along with a separate velocity for each note.
To play fewer than 8 notes, just set the unwanted notes
to
