or PD-120 head tightened uniformly?
➝ Refer to the owner’s manual for the pad you are using,
then adjust the head tension.
If pad volume or other quality is unstable, making the head
tension somewhat tighter improve stability.
Wrong Sound Plays
Is there a mistake in the head and rim
selection? (p. 57)
➝ With some parameters, you can make separate settings for
the head and rim. At this time, confirm the trigger type
appearing in the upper right of the screen, then make the
settings.
Are you making the rim shot (p. 37) and cross
stick (p. 37) correctly?
➝ To play rim shots, strike the head and rim simultaneously.
For cross stick, make sure your hand or stick does not
touch or strike the head.
