to change this.

Turn [Knob 3] (–/+) to edit the value.

Explanation

Inst Layer Type

OFF

Volume

Playing 
Dynamics

Only Inst A will play.

If Layer is set to other than OFF, the indication shown in this 
illustration will appear at the upper left of the Inst name 
indication in screens such as the KIT screen.

MIX

Volume

Playing 
Dynamics

Inst A and Inst B will both play together.

If the Layer Point has been specified, Inst 
B will be heard only when you hit the pad 
more strongly than the specified Layer Point 
velocity value, as shown in the illustration 
at right.

SWITCH

Playing 
Dynamics

Volume

Hits that are softer than the Layer Point will play Inst A, and hits that are stronger 
will play Inst B.

FADE

Playing 
Dynamics

Volume

Inst B will be added to Inst B when you play more strongly than the Layer Point.

XFADE

Playing 
Dynamics

Volume

This is essentially the same as FADE, but Inst A will decrease as you play the pad 
more strongly than the Layer Point.

Layer Point

1–127

Specifies the velocity value at which Inst B will start being heard.

Inst A

Selects Inst A. For details on how to select this, refer to “02 Selecting an Inst (INST)” (p. 23).

Inst B

Selects Inst B. For details on how to select this, refer to “02 Selecting an Inst (INST)” (p. 23).

Mute Group

OFF, 1–6

On an acoustic drum set, for example, the open hi-hat and closed hi-hat will not be heard simultaneously. You can 
use Mute Group settings to simulate this behavior.

Mute Group is a function that prevents Insts of the same mute group setting from being heard together. You can 
specify six mute groups. If you don’t want an Inst to belong to any mute group, choose “OFF.”

Dynamics

OFF, ON

If you choose OFF, playing dynamics will be ignored, and the Inst will only sound at the maximum velocity (127).
