Setting How the Strength with Which External Pads Are Struck Changes the Volume (TRIG CURVE)
With some external pads and acoustic drum triggers, the relationship between the strength with which
you strike the pad and the changes in volume output signal is unnatural. To get natural-sounding vol-
ume changes, set the Trigger Curve.
1
In Edit mode, select the SYSTEM parameter group (p. 21).
2
Press [ ] or [ ] to select the TRIG CURVE.
3
Strike the external pad (or Kick Trigger Unit) to be set.
fig. 55
Trigger Curve rim and head settings are shared for all pads (PD-7/9, PD-120).
You cannot make settings for the internal pads. If you try to select the internal head by striking it,
” is displayed.
4
Using PATCH/VALUE [+] or [-], set the Trigger Curve (-2, -1, 0, 1, or 2).
Values correspond to the Trigger Curves shown below.
0 denotes the standard Trigger Curve.
fig. 56
To make this setting correctly, set the Trigger Sensitivity before setting the Trigger Curve.
Setting the Same Parameter Values to All Pads
When you press [ALL/ENTER] while in Edit mode, the parameter values that are set in an external pad
are set to all external pads that are in the selected pad bank at that time.
For example, with Trigger Type Pd7 set to Trigger Input 1, by pressing [ALL/ENTER], Pd7 is set to
all four Trigger Inputs.
If you press [ALL/ENTER] when setting the Trigger Type, the current pad’s Advance Trigger para-
meter settings (p. 48) are applied to all of the other Trigger Inputs.
[ALL/ENTER] does not function in Advanced Edit mode (p. 48).
