Trigger Setup List (page 12 of Owner's Manual)
On this new version, the Trigger Setups have just updated shown below. Select the Trigger Setup according to your configuration.
· In the default setting, "1: Medium" is selected.
· Medium (Med): Normal Setting
· Dynamic (Dyna): Wide dynamic range. The setting is designed for maximum expressive control, allowing performance subtleties over a wide dynamic range.
Excessive vibration however, may result in crosstalk (sound being produced by other pads).
· If you use a kit other than those listed above, create your original Trigger Setup (16-19) by following the instructions on page 34 of the Owner's Manual, referring to
the Pad Types described below.
