these names. The trapKAT doesn't know what is plugged into its' MIDI OUT port. So it is best to get
into the habit of looking at the note number and not the sound name.
KIT EDIT FOOTSWITCH
This footswitch turns the pads into a function for editing the KIT that you are playing. When you stepped
on the NOTE EDIT footswitch and tapped on a pad, you saw and heard a note number. When you step on
the KIT EDIT FOOTSWITCH and hit a pad, a function will be displayed. Just about every pad has a
function, some have multiple functions. These will be described in the KIT EDITING section of the
manual.
GLOBAL EDIT FOOTSWITCH
This footswitch is for doing things that are Global. That means that these settings affect the entire
instrument, and not just one kit.
The overall training of the pads, saving your kits, doing data dumps, memory protection are all
examples of Global things to do on the trapKAT. These Global functions are described in the
GLOBAL EDITING section of the manual.
MIDI OUT JACKS
There are two MIDI OUT jacks on the trapKAT. They are identical and are there for convenience in
case you are using more than one sound source for your sounds. Data goes OUT to the external world
through these jacks at the same time.
MIDI IN JACK
Plug a MIDI cable into this port if you want to send a SYSEX Data Dump to the trapKAT. It is
also possible to program the MIDI note number of a pad if you are in NOTE EDIT and you send a
note number externally to the trapKAT from an outside source. This is called AutoTrain.
Hi HAT INPUT
This is where you connect your eHAT2 to the trapKAT. You must use a 1/4” mono cable. At the
factory, we TRAIN the trapKAT to work perfectly with the eHAT2. If you are using another
manufacturer's hi hat pedal, you will probably will need to TRAIN the pedal in order to get the best
results. TRAINING the pedal will be discussed in the GLOBAL Section of the manual.
