Edit Section [COMMON1] & [COMMON2] Kit Common Settings These two pages let you make basic settings for the drum kit you are currently working (editing) with. For this reason, some parameters are not directly related to trigger settings. [COMMON1] Volume WaveDir 127 No Card 1 2 [COMMON2] Song P1 3 Tempo off 4 9to10 off 5 11to12 off 6 1 Volume Determines the overall volume of the rhythm part including the drum kit (MIDI channel 10). ❏ Settings: 0~127 n This is the same as the volume setting for MIDI channel 10 (page 54). 5 9to10 If you set this parameter to on, trigger signals generated at trigger input 9 (KICK) will be shared with trigger input 10. Then, set trigger input 10 to play notes in an alternate mode (for example, from a footswitch; no pad required). When you play the bass drum in this case, you can have the phrase automatically synchronized to a bass drum pattern assigned to input 9. ❏ Settings: off, on 6 11to12 If you set this parameter to on, trigger signals generated at trigger input 11 will be shared with trigger input 12. (This is used in the same way as 5 above.) ❏ Settings: off, on n Trigger inputs 9/10 and 11/12 jacks are stereo pairs. However, you can use them as four separate mono inputs if you connect four mono pads using two Y-shaped cables and setting the above two parameters 5 & 6 to off. 2 WaveDir This determines the directory on the memory card (page 86), where wave samples or user voice data used together with this drum kit are stored. The next time you select this drum kit, those files will automatically be loaded. Make sure to insert the appropriate memory card into the CARD slot; otherwise, "No card" will be shown. ❏ Settings: Directory name on a memory card [KitName] Drum Kit Name You can enter a name of up to 8 characters for the drum kit you are now editing. [KitName] Name "Acoustic" 3 Song This determines the song that is automatically called up when you select this drum kit. Specify off to disable the automatic selection of a song. ❏ Settings: off, Preset or User song 4 Tempo This determines the tempo that is automatically set when you select this drum kit. Specify off to disable the automatic tempo setting. ❏ Settings: off, 30~300 Use the second-to-left knob to move the entry position (cursor) for each character. Then, use the center knob to enter a character at that position. Repeat this step and specify the drum kit name (maximum of eight characters). ❏ Available characters: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F G H I J K L MNOPQR S T U VWX Y Z a b c d e f g h i j k l mn o p q r s t u v w x y z Once you've finished making the desired trigger settings, store this drum kit (page 35). 47
