PROGRAMMING DRUM SOUNDS
To program a sound in Drum Mode, you must first set the Sound Type to “Drum” for
that particular sound in the Voice Function, page 2 (see previous section). The [0] –
[9] buttons are used to select a Drum (1–10), regardless of which Function or Page is
selected (except Effect, Name and Misc.). For an explanation of the basics of Drum
Mode, see page 56.
VOICE
The Voice function (press [40]) is where you choose the particular sample for the
selected drum (1–10). Similar to the normal Assign Voice function, sounds are
divided into groups. After selecting the group (on page 3), you then select the sample
within the group (on page 4). Here is a chart listing the various drum samples in their
respective groups.
