Playing the pads
Similar to an acoustic drum set, this digital drum set responds to various playing techniques,
dynamics and velocity. With some voices changing tone depending on the strength of the strike.
1. The Mesh snare pad has 2 sensor zones: main pad and pad rim. On selected voices the rim
can have 2 velocity specfic sounds that create a side stick (soft) and also a rim shot (hard).
2. Crash 1 and Crash 2 cymbal pads have one zone and also a CHOKE sensor, hit the cymbal
and then pinch the central part of the rim to choke (stop) the sound.
3. The Tom pads have 2 sensor zones: main pad and pad rim.
4. The Ride cymbal has 2 sensor zones: cymbal rim on the edge of the pad and cymbal bell
towards the centre of the pad. The Ride cymbal also features the CHOKE function.
5. The Hi-Hat cymbal pad has a single zone sensor. The different sounds of the hi-hat are
