Adjusting the Volume of the Pad (Level)
Adjusts the volume of the instrument. Raising the value will
increase the volume. With a setting of “0,” no sound is
produced.
Make the adjustment here when correcting the volume
balance between instruments.
The pedal hi-hat volume is set in “Pedal HH Vol (Pedal Hi-
Hat Volume)” (KIT/COMMON/Pedal HH Vol; p. 68).

Level: 0–127
Setting the Pan Position (Pan)
This adjusts the instrument’s pan setting (the perceived
position of the sound between left and right speakers).
Pan settings apply to both the head and rim. The rim
settings value appears in parentheses. If either the head
or rim settings are changed, the settings for the other are
changed automatically.

This setting is applied only when connected in stereo.

Pan: L15–CENTER–R15, RANDOM, ALTERNATE
L15: Sound is positioned at the extreme left.
CENTER: Sound is positioned in the center.
R15: Sound is positioned at the extreme right.
RANDOM: The panning changes randomly each time the
pad is struck.
ALTERNATE: The panning alternately switches between left
and right each time the pad is struck.
Adjusting the Pitch (Pitch)
Adjusts the pitch of the instrument. The pitch is raised the
higher the value is set. When set to “0,” the sound is played at
the instrument’s default value.
For some instruments, raising or lowering the value beyond a
certain point may not produce further change.

Pitch: -480–+480
Adjusting the Decay (Length of
Sound) (Decay)
Adjusts the decay of the instrument’s sound. Higher settings
will result in a longer decay time. When set to “0,” the sound
is played at the instrument’s default value.
For some instruments, raising or lowering the value beyond a
certain point may not produce further change.
