Tone Generator Block (Drum Kits and Drum Voices)
The tone generator block is the section of the DTXTREME III which plays the Drum Voice assigned to the Trigger Input
Source which transmits the trigger signal. Assigning each of Drum Voices to each of the Trigger Input Sources makes up a
Drum Kit. A total of 50 Preset Drum Kits are provided in the DTXTREME III. Drum Kits can be edited or created as desired
and then stored to up to 50 User Drum Kit locations in internal memory, or stored to a maximum 1584 External Drum Kits
(16 Banks x 99 kits = 1584 kits) in an external USB storage device connected to the USB TO DEVICE connector.
The DTXTREME III is a comprehensive sound source in it own right just with the built-in Preset Drum Kits; however, you
get even more out of the instrument by understanding the internal structure and creating your own original Drum Kits.
Drum Voices assigned to each of the Trigger Input Sources
You can create your own original Drum Kit by assigning the desired Drum Voice to each of the Trigger
Input Sources coming from the pad. For instructions, see page 61.
Convenient Voice Set assignment for each Trigger Input jack
Assign Drum Voices to each of the Trigger Input Sources may be time-consuming and even tedious,
difficult work. This is why the DTXTREME III provides the Voice Set parameter. Simply by selecting
a value of the Voice Set parameter, you can assign the Drum Voices to all the Trigger Input Sources cor-
responding to the respective Trigger Input jacks. For instructions, see page 79.
