Yamaha KP120 Owner's Manual - Page 4

I Setting Up 1. Assemble the KP120. As shown in the illustrations, remove the wing bolts and attach the riser and legs. Use the tuning key to loosen the adjustment bolts, then extend the four legs and tighten the bolts loosely. 2. Attach your foot pedal to the KP120. Adjust the legs so that the surface of the KP120's pad is vertical when the foot pedal is attached and the kick pad and pedal are stable when the pedal is used to strike the pad. After leg length has been determined, tighten the bolts firmly to secure. * A drum tuning key will be required for assembly.

Make slight adjustments to the pedal's position and the beater length so that beater strikes the pad at its center. Beater Beater (Double Pedal) Hoop Tuning Bolt NOTE : A double foot pedal setup (YAMAHA: DFP-880, etc.) can also be used. When a double foot pedal setup is used on the KP120, the position of the pedal and length of the beaters should be adjusted so that the point between the two beaters is positioned at the pad's center. NOTE : Use the legs with their non-slip spurs at the ends of the legs exposed, if the drum is setup on a platform or marks on the floor are no problem. If you don't want to leave marks on the floor, use the legs with the spurs at the ends of the legs covered with the rubber ends. NOTE : Drum head tension can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the tuning bolts on the hoop with a drum key. However, there will be no change in the tone produced by the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS, etc. 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 : Never tighten or loosen the drum head more than necessary. 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. I Connections Use the supplied monaural phone cable to connect the pad's OUTPUT jack to the Input (KICK, etc.) jack on the DTXTREME/DTX/ DTXPRESS. Connect the cable's L-shaped plug to the pad. NOTE : When the KP120 is used with the DTXTREME/ DTX/DTXPRESS, please set the INPUT's "Pad Type" setting to "RH Kick" on the DTXTREME, "pad 2" on the DTX, or "KP" on the DTXPRESS. Selecting another pad type may result in problems such as double triggers (when a single stroke produces multiply triggered sounds). Please refer to the "Owner's Manual" supplied with your DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS. Connect 3m Cable with Standard Phone Plug (monaural) I Troubleshooting If the following trouble occurs when the KP120 is used, please check the following points before asking your dealer for assistance. G No sound output, sound level is low Problem What to check. Is the KP120's OUTPUT jack properly connected to the INPUJT jack of the DTXTREME/DTX/ DTXPRESS with the supplied cable? Check the connections between the KP120 and the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS. Is the KP120's Level Adjustment Knob set lower than necessary? When the Level Adjustment Knob is set lower than necessary, even though the pad may have been hit hard, only a weaker signal is sent so the tone generator in the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS will not be able to produce sufficient volume. Is the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS properly connected to an external device such as a pair of headphones, amplifier, speaker, etc? Check the connections between the external devices and also the power switch, volume, etc. settings on the external device. Is the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS properly setup? Make sure the volume setting assigned to the INPUT number on the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS to which the KP120 is connected is not set too low (refer to the previous "Increase the Volume" section) or the headphone's volume is set too low. G Multiple sounds are produced when the pad is struck once (Double Trigger). Problem What to check. Is the KP120's Output LEVEL adjustment knob set too high? If the Output LEVEL knob is set too high, the large signal remains for a longer time causing the DTXTREME/ DTX/DTXPRESS to produce multiple triggers. Use the previously explained Output LEVEL adjustment to set the level to a proper level. Is the Input Pad Type to which the KP120 is connected to the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS set to a pad type other than "RH Kick" on the DTXTREME, "pad 2" on the DTX, or "KP" on the DTXPRESS? Even if the signal level is the same, if the pad type is set to a different pad type, double triggers might easily occur. Refer to the Owner's Manual supplied with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS for more information. ❇ If the double triggers continue even after you have tried the solutions listed above, use the DTXTREME/DTX/ DTXPRESS "Self Rejection" function to control the problem. Refer to the Owner's Manual supplied with the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS for more information. For more information on the problems listed above and other problems, please refer to the "Owner's Manual" of the DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS. If you cannot solve the problem on your own, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased the device.
