Yamaha RY9 - Playing the Drum Pads

7. PLAYING THE DRUM PADS
At power-on, you can start hitting the drum pads right away. Try listening to the
sounds of the currently selected drum kit.
The Drum Voice List and Drum Kit List are provided on pages 84 and 86.
SELECTING THE PAD BANKS.
Each of the twelve drum pads has two drum voices assigned to it. These are
organized in “Drum” and “Percussion” Pad Banks.
■ To switch back and forth between the two Pad Banks, press [PAD BANK].
■ Either the word “DRUM” (for Drum Pad Bank) or the word “PERC” (for
Percussion Pad Bank) will appear in the LCD screen as you switch back and
forth between each.
