Setting Up To prevent electric shock and damage to the devices, make sure the power is switched OFF on the DTXPRESS and all related devices before making any connections to the DTXPRESS' input and output jacks. ■ Connecting the pads Referring to the illustration shown below, connect the output cable from each pad to each Trigger Input Jack located on the rear panel of the DTXPRESS. The Trigger Input Jacks are all labeled (1 KICK, etc.) so make sure you connect each pad to its corresponding Trigger Input Jack. to 7 CRASH to 8 HI HAT Caution) A cable equipped with a stereo plug is required when connecting the Hi-Hat Controller. to HI HAT CONTROL to 3 TOM1 to 4 TOM2 to 6 RIDE ● For a move flexible snare/Hi-Hat setup, set the pads as shown in the illustration below. to 2 SNARE to 5 TOM3 to 1 KICK H L • Trigger Input Jacks are all stereo input type jacks. Pads equipped with trigger switches like the TP80S, PCY80S, etc. can be connected to these jacks. • When a pad corresponding to the labeled input jack (1 KICK, etc.) is connected, the DTXPRESS will automatically assign settings suitable for the pads. However, when pads and drum triggers that possess different characteristics are connected, it will be necessary to assign suitable settings for parameters such as sensitivity, etc. • Sensitivity is set in the Trigger Setup Edit mode's [1-1. Pad Type] (P. 36). By double clicking the [TRIG] button, you can hit the pad you want to set and the DTXPRESS display will automatically jump to the proper setting display. • The input sensitivity switches (INPUT ATTENUATION) are sensitivity switches that correspond to Trigger Input Jacks 1 KICK-6 RIDE. The switch's L position corresponds to a low sensitivity for pads like TP, KP, PCY, BP, etc. The H position corresponds to a high sensitivity proper for use with the DT10 Drum Trigger, etc. • It is possible to connect the TP60, TP80S, PCY80S, etc. pads to the 1 KICK jack. You can also use the Hi-Hat Controller HH60, HH80, HH80A as a kick pedal (Use [1-1. Pad Type] to assign settings.). • In addition to the 1 KICK jack, the 9/10 jack can be used to connect a second bass drum pedal to create a double-bass drum set. • The 9/10 jacks correspond to a 2-trigger input that uses a stereo jack for L (9) and R (10). We recommend the use of these jacks when connecting the Yamaha Bar Pad (BP-80). You can use an conversion cable plug (stereo plug m monaural plug x2) to input two separate trigger signals. 10
