Internal Pad Sensitivity Settings
Internal Pad Settings (PAD SETTING-INTERNAL)
Here’s how to adjust the sensitivity of the internal pads.
1.
Choose MENU

The PAD SETTING-INTERNAL screen appears.
2.
Hit a pad to select the pad whose settings you
want to edit .
3.
Turn [Knob 1] (SEL) to select a parameter .
4.
Turn [Knob 3] (–/+) to edit the value .
The following parameters are common to pads 1–8.

Explanation
Sensitivity
-9–+9
You can adjust the sensitivity of the pads to accommodate your personal playing style.
This allows you to have more dynamic control over the sound volume, based on how hard you play. Higher
sensitivity allows the pad to produce a loud volume even when played softly. Lower sensitivity will keep the pad
producing a low volume even when played forcefully.
Velocity Curve
Adjust this curve until the response feels as natural as possible.
LINEAR
The standard setting. This produces the most natural
correspondence between playing dynamics and
volume change.

LOUD1, LOUD2
Very little dynamic response, making it easy to
maintain strong volume levels.
If you’re using a drum trigger as an external pad, these
settings will produce reliable triggering.

Threshold
-9–+9
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when the pad is above a determined dynamic level
(velocity). This can be used to prevent a pad from sounding because of vibrations from other pads.
In the following example, B will sound but A and C will not sound.
Threshold
When set to a higher value, no sound is produced when the pad is struck lightly. Gradually raise the “Threshold”
value while striking the pad.
Check this and adjust accordingly. Repeat this process until you get the perfect setting for your playing style.

This indicates the velocity value.
Hit a pad to select the pad whose
settings you want to edit.
[Knob 1] (SEL) selects a parameter.
[Knob 3] (–/+) edits the value.
