Trigger Settings
You can adjust trigger parameters to suit your playing habits and
optimize the digital drum for best performance.
The module provides a group of preset trigger settings. You can edit
the relevant parameters and save it on the module. If you do not save
the edited data, it will be lost after power off..

Description
Adjust the pad sensitivity.
A high value will produce loud sound, even you strike softly.
A low value will produce low sound, even you strike heavily.
Adjust the sensitivity of rim shot.
Trigger signal will produce sound only when it is above the threshold level. Although this
setting can prevent unwanted sounding, such as crosstalk from other pads, if set to a higher
level, no sound will be produced when you strike lightly.
For example, B will produce sound but A and C will not.
To get a proper threshold value:
1. Set the value to a low level.
2. Raise the value gradually while striking the pad.
3. Repeat step2 until you get an appropriate level.
Adjust the disturbance between head and rim shot. (Only for Snare and Tom)
When the value is set to “0”, it plays only the rim shot sound, but no cross stick sound. As the
value increases, the cross stick sound will be more noticeable.
Note: This parameter is not available until X-Stick function is turned on in KIT menu.
Crosstalk means when hitting a pad, another pad is mistakenly triggered, which should have
be avoided. This may happen when two pads sit on the same stand.
For example: when you hit the Snare, if both Snare and Tom1 produce sound, you can raise
Tom1's “XTALK” value to prevent crosstalk.
Note: Make sure the “XTALK” value is set to a proper level. If the value is set too high, when
you hit two pads at the same time, the pad being struck gently may be judged as “crosstalk”
and will not produce sound.
This setting adjusts the relationship between the striking force and the response volume.
Please refer to Curve description in this chapter.
This setting is to cancel “re-triggering”. Re-triggering means when you strike a pad, you hear
two sounds from this strike because of pad vibration.
Note: If the value is set too high, sounds may be omitted when you play fast; if the value is set
too low, re-triggering may not be prevented. Better set the value to the minimum level required
but still can prevent re-triggering.
Adjust the close point settings:
Adjust the sensitivity of hi-hat control pedal.
Adjust the splash sensitivity. When set to a higher value, it becomes easier to play the splash.
Adjust the sensitivity of cymbal bow.
Adjust the sensitivity of cymbal edge.
Adjust the sensitivity of cymbal bell.
