Basic Operations Basic Operations All of the DTXTREME IIs operations are done using the various panel controls and the two displays. In this section, we'll explain how to use these controls. 2 DRUM TRIGGER MODULE 3 1 4 1 The DTXTREME IIs has seven function modes. You can select each mode by simply pressing the corresponding mode button. An indicator light shows which mode you are currently working in. When you turn the unit on or exit from the other six modes, the DTXTREME IIs will go into PLAY mode and the PLAY indicator will light (you cannot exit from this basic mode). 2 Use the Page buttons (▲/▼) to switch among the available setting pages (LCD screens). 3 There are five knobs beneath the LCD display. Each knob corresponds to a parameter shown above in the LCD screen and can be used to set the value. To advance rapidly or jump through the available values, simultaneously hold down the SHIFT button and turn the appropriate knob. When you are editing a drum kit and want to set the same parameters for different targets (trigger inputs 1 to 16, etc.), you can use the leftmost knob to conveniently switch the target without changing the screen you are working in. [TrgSens1] Type Gain Curve PadCtrl Input=1 RHP 32 3 - pitch 4 If you are working in a specific page or performing a specific operation, and the ENTER/YES indicator flashes, this is a prompt indicating you should answer YES or NO. Simply press the ENTER/YES button to execute the operation, or press the EXIT/NO button to cancel it. Pressing the STORE button to save edited data also causes the ENTER/YES indicator to flash. In this case, press the ENTER/YES button to save the data, or press the EXIT/ NO button to cancel the store operation. n Since most settings are automatically stored into the memory of the DTXTREME IIs, you do not need to execute the store operation unless prompted. Basically, this is all you need to know to start working with and playing your DTXTREME IIs. Any crucial operations are preceded by a confirmation display that allows you to cancel the operation as needed. However, you must first complete one very important setting before actually playing with the DTXTREME IIs. Here is a chance to put into practice some of the things you've just learned... 20
