Yamaha 100 Owner's Manual - Page 4

I Setting Up (RHP80/100/120) Insert the Tom Holder (6-sided), on a rack stand or tom stand, into the Rod Clamp attached to the Pad, and tighten the Clamp Bolt firmly. Clamp Bolt Tom Holder Insert Rod Clamp (RHP120SD) The snare drum pad can setup on a snare drum stand (YAMAHA: SS642, etc.) in the same manner as a normal snare drum. NOTE : When attaching the Real Head Pads to a rack system, we recommend that either the YAMAHA Rack System RS100 or RS95 be used. Using a ball clamp type tom holder like the RS100 allows the attachment of large pads like the RHP120. A cylinder type tom holder like the RS95 allows the attachment of lighter pads up to the RHP80. When a large pad such as the RHP100/120 is attached to the RS95, we recommend that the tom holder TPCL100 (optional) be used. The RS60 and RS80 may not provide adequate support for the Real Head Pads. If you already own the RS80 rack system, adding the VK80 Rack Reinforcement Kit (optional) will increase the strength of the rack to that of the RS95. NOTE : Drum head tension can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the tuning bolts on the hoop with a tuning key.However, there will be no change in the tone produced by the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS, etc. : Make sure the pads are properly setup on the rack or stand. If the clamp bolts, etc. are not tightened sufficiently, the pad may fall off resulting in injury. Also, if the rack or stand is not setup on a flat surface, the rack or stand may overturn resulting in injury. NOTE : Please make sure that head tension is even all the way around the head. Uneven tension may produce wrinkles, which may shorten the life of the drum head. NOTE : Make sure the drum head is tightened within a proper range. Over tightening may result in damage to the drum head, shell, etc. An overly loosened head may result in a shorter life of the drum head, cushion, or noise. Also, when the head is too loose a metallic noise may occur when playing rim shots, likewise, the output from the rim sensor may be reduced and the sound produced by the DTXTREME/DTX/ DTXPRESS may be reduced or not sound at all when playing rim shots. The head may also become loose over time, so occasionally retighten the head. I Connections Use the supplied stereo phone cable to connect the pad's output jack to the input (SNARE, TOM1, etc.) of the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS. Connect the cable's L-shaped plug to the pad. NOTE : The RHP80/100/120/120SD Real Head Pads are dual trigger type electronic drum pads. Both the pad (the drum head section) and the rim (the hoop section around the head that is used for rim shots) are individually equipped with trigger sensors. A separate sound can be assigned to the rim to allow for rim shots *. * Only the following inputs can be used. DTXTREME: INPUT 1-8, 9/10-15/16 DTX: INPUT 9/10, 11/12 DTXPRESS: INPUT 9/10 Since other INPUTS are designed for use with pad trigger/rim switch type pads (TP-80S, etc.), only the pad will be able to produce sound when a Real Head Pad is connected. Connect 3m Cable with Standard Phone Plug (Stereo) G When the pad is hit, the sound assigned to the rim is also produced, or vice versa (cross talk). Problem What to check. Is the Real Head Pad's Output LEVEL Adjustment knob set too high? If the rim's Output LEVEL knob is set too high, sympathetic vibrations produced when the pad is hit may be transmitted through the shell, etc. and picked up by the sensor located in the rim which in turn causes the sound assigned to the rim to be produced. Use the previously explained Output LEVEL Adjustment to set the level to a proper level. ❇ If the cross talk continues even after you have tried the solutions listed above, use the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS "Specified Rejection" function to control the problem (can be used on the following channels DTXTREME: INPUTS 9/ 10-15/16, DTX: INPUTS 9/10, 11/12, DTXPRESS: INPUT 9/10). Refer to the Owner's Manual supplied with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS for more information. G When mounted on the rack and a pad is hit, a sound that is assigned to another pad is also produced (cross talk). Problem What to check. Is the rack system's strength adequate, or are sections of the rack loose? If the clamp bolts, etc. are not tightened firmly when the rack is assembled, the unstable section of the rack will move about when the pad is hit. Vibrations are then transmitted to sensors in the other pads resulting in other sounds being produced. Please make sure that the rack or stand is assembled firmly. Is the Output LEVEL Adjustment knob on each of the pads connected to the rack system set too high? If the Output LEVEL knob on any of the pads is set too high, sympathetic vibrations produced when another pad is hit may be transmitted through the rack pipe, etc. and picked up by the pad's trigger sensor which in turn causes the sound assigned to the pad to be produced. Use the previously explained Output LEVEL Adjustment and set the level to a proper level. ❇ If the cross talk continues between other pads, even after you have tried the solutions listed above, use the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS "Specified Rejection" function to control the problem. Refer to the Owner's Manual supplied with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS for more information. G When a rim shot is played, a metallic noise is produced. Problem What to check. Is the drum head on the Real Head Pad too loose? When the drum head is too loose, a metallic noise may be produced when a rim shot is played. Use the tuning key to adjust head tension. (Refer to the previous "Setting Up" section.) For more information on the problems listed above and other problems, please refer to the "Owner's Manual" supplied with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESSS. If you can not solve the problem on your own, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased the device. I Output Level (LEVEL) Adjustment Controls the trigger output level produced by the Real Head Pads. Output produced by either the pad section (the drum head section) or rim section (rim shot) can be controlled individually. Turn the LEVEL adjustment knob to the right (+) to increase the level. Turn to the left (-) to decrease the level. Adjust the level according to the amount of strength you use when playing the pad and rim, the required dynamic range, or specific needs regarding the devices that you use. RIM LEVEL PAD NOTE : When the Real Head Pad is used with the DTXTREME/DTX/ DTXPRESS, the value on the Input Level display, found in the Trigger Edit Mode's [PAD GAIN] page, should be set to a value somewhere between 90% and 95% when the pad is struck at ff (the rim should be set the same for rim shots). For more information, please refer to the "Owner's Manual" supplied with your DTXTREME/ DTX/DTXPRESS. If the Output LEVEL is set too high, the dynamic range may be reduced, or problems such as double triggers (when a single stroke produces multiply triggered sounds), and cross talk (hitting the pad causes the sound assigned to the rim to be produced or vice versa) may occur. : Do not put excessive pressure on the level adjustment knob, it may result in damage. LEVEL Adjustment Knob LEVEL PAD RIM G About Rim Shot Sensitivity The locations of the RHP80/100/120/120SD's trigger sensors are shown in the illustration. The highest sensitivity can be found in the direct vicinity of the sensor and will decrease as you move away from the sensor. If you are going to use rim shots, we recommend that the area of highest sensitivity be placed in an optimum position when setting up the pad. 3)1 3)1 3)1 3)14% OUTPUT Jack Location OUTPUT Jack Location OUTPUT Jack Location OUTPUT Jack Location Sensor Location Sensor Location Sensor Location Sensor Location To Increase the Sound Volume To change the volume of the sound assigned to individual pads when the Real Head Pads are used with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS, first adjust the Output LEVEL as described previously, then use the (VOICE) EDIT Mode to set the volume on the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS.
