The DTXPRESS does not produce sound, and does not recognize trigger inputs.
● Is the pad or trigger sensor properly connected to the DTXPRESS’ trigger input jack? (m P. 10)
● Is the volume knob on the front panel turned down? (m P. 8)
● Is the input level displayed when the pad is hit? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
● Is the gain set too low? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
● Is the Utility mode’s [1-2. Trigger Bypass] bypass switch set to “ON”? (m P. 52)
● Is the Drum Kit Voice Edit mode’s [1-2. Volume, Pan] (m P. 41) or [5-1. Volume] (m P. 47) volume set to “0”?
● Check the local control setting in the Utility mode. When the local control is set to “off” the DTXPRESS will not
produce sound when the pads are hit. (m P. 55 [2-6. Device Number, Local Control])

The external tone generator does not produce sound.
● Is the MIDI cable (connector) properly connected? (m P. 12)
● Are the MIDI note number values proper? (m P. 42 [1-7. Channel, Gate Time])

A voice other than the set voice is produced.
● Is the transmitting MIDI channel set to a channel that is not used for the drum voice (ch=10)?
(m P. 42 [1-7. Channel, Gate Time])
● Is the Voice=2 parameter set for a 2 layer voice? (m P. 41 [1-1. Voice])
Produces sound but the sensitivity is too low (volume is low).
● Is the gain set too low? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
● Pads with output or sensitivity control volumes should be adjusted (increased).
● Is the minimum velocity set too low? (m P. 36 [1-2. Gain, Minimum Velocity])
● Is a proper velocity curve being used? (m P. 37 [1-3. Velocity Curve])
● Is the volume of the voice you want to use too low? (m P. 41 [1-2. Volume, Pan])
● Is the drum head getting old?
● Change the INPUT ATTENUATION setting on the rear panel. (m P. 9 )
The trigger sound is not stable (for acoustic drums).
● Check the “Produces sound but the sensitivity is too low (volume is low).” list above.
● Is the proper pad type set? Select a larger pad type setting (DT snare m DT hi tom m DT lo tom m DT kick 1 m
DT kick 2) (m P. 36 [1-1. Pad Type])
● Is the DT10 properly attached with sticky tape? (Is there any old sticky tape remaining on the head?) (m P. 11)
