Setting the drum key for independent open and closed hi-hat sounds
In a real drum kit, some drum sounds cannot physically be played simultaneously, such as open and closed hi-hats.
You can prevent drum instruments from playing back simultaneously by assigning them to the same Alternate Group.
The preset Drum Voices have many such Alternate Group assignments to ensure the most authentic, natural sound. When
creating a Voice from scratch, you can use this feature — either to ensure authentic sound, or to create special effects,
where playing one sound cancels out a previous one.
1
Call up the Key Edit display in the Voice Edit mode.
Refer to step #3 on page 82.
2 Call up the [F1] OSC → [SF5] OTHER display.
3 Press the key which corresponds to “Hi-Hat
Open” and set the Alternate Group to “1.”
4
Press the key which corresponds to “Hi-Hat Close”
and set it to the same Alternate Group (1) as in step #3.
5 Confirm whether the Alternate Group has been set
properly.
Immediately after pressing the “Hi-Hat Open” key, press
the “Hi-Hat Close” key. Pressing the second key should
cut off the sound of the first.
Since the settings above are included in the Drum Voice
data, store them as a Drum Voice in the Voice Store mode.
Determining how the Drum Voice responds when the key is released
You can determine whether or not the selected Drum key responds to MIDI Note Off messages. Setting the Receive Note Off
parameter to “off” can be useful for cymbal sounds and other sustaining sounds. This lets you have the selected sounds
sustain to the length of their natural decay – even if you release the note, or when a Note Off message is received. If this
parameter is set to “on,” the sound will stop immediately when the note is released or a Note Off message is received.
Setting the Output jack for each key (drum/percussion instrument)
You can change the output jack on the rear panel for the individual Drum key signal. This function is useful when you wish
to apply a connected external effect to a specific drum instrument.
For details, see page 31.
