DTX700  Adjusting Head and Rim Balance Follow the steps below to adjust the balance between the head and rim of the snare or other drum on which a DT50S is mounted. This setting will only work when you have selected "DT50S Snare", "DT50S HiTom", or "DT50SLoTom" for the Pad Type parameter. 1. Press the [MENU] button to access the Menu area. 2. Use the dial to navigate to the TRIGGER/PAD/PAD TYPE page. 3. Adjust the Balance parameter to set the balance. HINT If the head sounds when the rim is struck, move the balance further to the R side (i.e., raise the setting) to ensure that the rim sounds. Similarly, if the rim sounds when the head is struck, move the balance further to the H side (i.e., lower the setting) to ensure that the head sounds instead. Adjust the value until you reach the optimal balance. NOTE If noise enters the trigger signal or sounds are not being generated correctly, adjust the noise filter. For details, refer to "Noise Filter Table (NoiseFltrTbl)" in this drum trigger module's Reference Manual. 15

sounds. Similarly, if the rim sounds when the head is struck, move the balance further to the H side (i.e., lower the setting) to
ensure that the head sounds instead. Adjust the value until you reach the optimal balance.
