Global P5: Drum Kit
Here, you can create drum kits by assigning a drum
instrument (drum sample) to each key.
A drum kit you edit here can be used in the same way as a
multisample oscillator (when Oscillator Mode is Single or
Double) and processed through the filter, amp, and effects
etc. To do this, set the Oscillator Mode to Drums or Double
Drums in the Program mode P1: Basic/Controllers– Program
Basic page, and selecting the drum kit as an oscillator in the
P2: OSC/Pitch– OSC1 Setup page and OSC2 Setup page.
Getting ready to edit
• Make sure that in the Global P0: Basic Setup ‐ System
Preference page, Memory Protect Drum Kit is off
(unchecked). If this is checked, you won't be able to save.
• When you wish to edit a drum kit, enter Program mode,
select a program that uses a drum kit (i.e., whose
Oscillator Mode is Drums or Double Drums), and then
move to this page. A program that uses a drum kit will
already have filter, amp, and effect settings etc. suitable
for drum sounds.
• You must set Octave (Prog 2–1a) to +0[8']. With any
setting other than +0[8'], the key locations and drum
sounds will not correspond correctly.
Moving to the Global P5: Drum Kit page
• In the Program mode P2: OSC/Pitch OSC1 Setup or OSC2
Setup page, press the Jump to Drum Kit Edit button.
You will jump to Global P5: Drum Kit. The drum kit
selected in Drum Kit Select of OSC1 or 2 will be selected.
If Oscillator Mode is set to Double Drums, only the
selected drum kit will produce sound. If a GM drum kit is
selected, the last‐selected drum kit will be selected. Use
“Copy Drum kit” to copy the GM drum kit to the USER
bank as necessary.
If you want to edit a drum kit that is assigned to OSC2
of Double Drums, use the Jump to Drum Kit Edit
button of OSC2 to select this page.
• If you moved from another program or mode, the OSC1
drum kit that was selected most recently for the program
will be recalled.
• Even if a program with an Oscillator Mode of Single or
Double is selected in Program mode, the program will
sound using its own filter and amp settings etc.
• Effects will sound according to the settings of the
program you selected.
Editing a Drum Kit
For detailed step‐by‐step instructions on creating drum kits,
please see “Editing a Drum Kit” on page 106 of the
Operation guide.
If Enable Exclusive (Global 1–2b) is checked, the drum
kit can be edited using exclusive data.
Saving Drum Kits
Press the page menu or the WRITE button to access the
Write Drum Kits dialog box, and execute the save
operation; all drum kits will be saved.
Unlike when editing a program or combination, your
edited content will temporarily remain even if you
select a different drum kit, but will be lost when you
turn off the power.
If you want to keep the settings of an edited drum kit
even after power‐off, you must execute Write Drum
Kits.
Editing a drum kit will affect all programs that use the
edited drum kit. When editing a preloaded drum kit,
it's a good idea to copy the drum kit to an empty area in
the user bank before editing it.
