If the digital drum is not yet in UTILITY menu, press the 

[UTILITY] button to enter it. 

The UTILITY indicator will light up. You can use the [  ] or [  ] 

buttons to adjust parameters (as shown to the right ) for each 

pad as well as the rim sensitivity of the pad and the splash 

sensitivity of the Hi-Hat control pedal. 

The current pad to be edited can be selected either by pressing 

its Pad Select button, or by striking the pad itself. The PAD 

indicator will light up to show which pad is currently selected. If 

the rim of a pad is selected, both the PAD indicator and the 

RIM indicator will turn on.

Sensitivity: 

Adjust the sensitivity of the pad to regulate the pad 

response. Higher settings result in higher sensitivity, so that the 

pad will produce a loud volume even when struck softly. You 

can also adjust the sensitivity of the splash in SPLASH 

SENSITIVITY.

Threshold:

 This setting allows a trigger signal to be received 

only when the pad is struck harder than a specified force. This 

can be used to prevent a pad from sounding in response to 

extraneous vibrations from another pad.

Crosstalk:

 When two pads are mounted on the same stand, the 

vibration produced by hitting one pad may trigger the sound 

from another pad unintentionally (This is called crosstalk). You 

can avoid this problem by adjusting Crosstalk Cancel on the 

pad that is sounding inadvertently. If the value is set too high, 

then when two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is 

struck less forcefully will not sound. So be careful and set this 

parameter to the minimum value required to prevent such

crosstalk. With a setting of 0 , crosstalk prevention does not 

function.

Curve:

 

This setting allows you to control the relation between 

the velocity (striking force) and changes in volume (the dynamic 

curve). Adjust this curve until the response feels as natural as 

possible.
