Selecting Types for External Pads (TRIG TYPE)
The SPD-20’s Trigger Inputs allow you to connect and play using a variety of pad types. While the trigger
signal output from a pad can have a variety of characteristics depending on the type of pad, you can make
sure the trigger signal is read correctly by setting the Trigger Type. In addition, when connecting the PD-120
or other pad models, setting the Trigger Type makes it possible to play rim shots on the PD-120 (p. 39). The
Trigger Type is set not only for different drum pad types, but for different acoustic drum triggers as well.

Acoustic Drum Triggers
These are pickups that are attached to acoustic drums. The strength with which the drum is struck
is output as a trigger signal, allowing you to play sound modules with Trigger Inputs such as the
SPD-20’s.
