SETTING THE OUTPUT LEVELS - You can designate the output level for each
pad in a User drum kit. Hold [MODE] and press [PAGE+] or [PAGE-] to access
the output Level function. The word LEVEL will appear in the lower left area
of the LCD, and the level setting of the currently selected pad will be flashing. Press
any drum pad (within either the Drum or Percussion Pad Bank) to select it.
Press [-1] and [+1] to change the level setting from between 01 and16.
(As you change the level value, you can hit the pad in order to hear the effect
of the level change.) After youve set the level for the first pad, simply select
a different pad and repeat the procedure until you have set the levels for all
voices in your User drum kit.
SETTING THE ACCENT LEVELS - You can designate the accent level for each
pad in a User drum kit. Hold [MODE] and press [PAGE+] or [PAGE-] to access
the Accent level function. The word ACCENT will appear in the lower left
area of the LCD, and the level setting of the currently selected pad will be
flashing. Press any drum pad (within either the Drum or Percussion Pad Bank) to
select it. Press [-1] and [+1] to change the accent level setting from
between -7 and +7. (As you change the accent level value, you can hold
[ACCENT] and hit the pad in order to hear the effect of the accent level
change.) After youve set the accent level for the first pad, simply select a
different pad and repeat the procedure until you have set the accent levels
for all voices in your User drum kit.
The output volume of each pad will depend on its output Level setting, plus the Accent level value when
an accent is applied.
