TRIGGERING SETTINGS KIT INSTRUMENT ASSIGN
On the
kick and snare drum there are two layers to assign articulations to the zones. This feature gives you
many possibilities. You can just mix two snare drums to get a unique sound, or you can turn off the sidestick on
rim zone in Layer 1 and turn off all articulations except sidestick in Layer 2. This way you can get unique sidestick
sounds just by switching drums in Snare Layer cell. You can do the same adjustment for any other articulation.
On all other trigger inputs there are no layers, so there are many options for creating unique hybrid kits. For
instance you can put any sounds you want (clap, tambourine, cowbell) on tom rims. Since this settings saves with
the kit preset, it can be different for each kit.
This part of the triggering settings is
very important, because it is saved with the kit
preset. So it can be unique for every kit. Here you can assign different articulations for
different zones on the drum pad. There are many brands of pads available and they all differ
in the type and amount of zones. Like bow, or bell on cymbals and head, or rim on shells.
