SELECTING THE DRUM KITS.
When the Chase function is on, the currently selected drum kit will depend on
which pattern is selected. There are 16 drum kits—12 Preset drum kits and 4
User drum kits. To select a different kit, you must first enter Drum Kit Mode.
To enter Drum Kit Mode, hold [MODE] and press [KIT]. (To access the Kit
Select function, you may need to hold [MODE] and press [PAGE-] several
times; the Kit Select function is the first function in Drum Kit Mode.)
The word “SELECT” will appear on the LCD, as will the name of the currently
selected drum kit. The kit number (00 ~ 15) will also display in the LCD.
To select a different drum kit, press [-1] and [+1]. Kits #00 ~ #11 are Preset
drum kits, and kits #12 ~ #15 are User drum kits.
When shipped, the Preset drum kits #00 ~ #03 are assigned to User drum kits #12 ~ #15, respectively.
For a listing of the 16 drum kits and respective drum pad voice assignments, see page 84.
