DTXTREME III Owner’s Manual

Creating a Drum Kit

The DTXTREME III lets you create your own original Drum Kit by assigning your favorite Drum Voice to each pad and

setting its tuning, pan, decay, reverb, etc.

● Drum Voice

A Drum Voice is an percussion/drum instrument assigned to each pad. Assigning Drum Voices to pads makes up a

Drum Kit.

● Drum Kit

A Drum Kit is a collection of Drum Voices assigned to the individual pads. Selecting a Drum Kit assigns the Drum

Voice(s) to each pad.

● Voice Set

When you connect a stereo pad (referred to as a “two-zone pad” and “three-zone pad”) to the Trigger Input jack (pages

12 and 60), a different Drum Voice is triggered by the pad depending on the section you hit. A set of Voices that can be

triggered from a single pad is referred to as a “Voice Set.” You can assign a Voice Set to each pad (Trigger Input jacks).

Here, select a Voice Set for each of pads (Trigger Input jacks) to create your original Drum Kit.

Press the [DRUM KIT] button to enter the Drum Kit mode, then

press the [F1] PLAY button as necessary.

Select the desired Drum Kit by using the data dial, [INC/YES] and

[DEC/NO] buttons.

A good idea is to select a Drum Kit that is close in sound to the type of kit you intend

to create. Here, select “PRE: 01.”

Press the [F2] VOICE button, then the [SF1] SELECT button to

call up the display shown below.

1 INPUT or SOURCE

When “INPUT” is shown here, the Trigger Input jack (pages 12 and 60) is currently

selected for editing, and you can change it to the desired one to which you want to

assign the Voice Set. When “SOURCE” is shown here, the Trigger Input Source

(page 61) is currently selected for editing, and you can change it to the desired one to

which you want to assign the Voice.

Preset Voice Sets are divided into the following categories, which you can select here.
