Basic Operation

Playing Drum Pads

If using a three zone pad such as the XP100SD shown below,

you will be able to produce three distinct sounds (i.e., head,

open rim, closed rim) depending on where you hit it, much the

same as if you were playing an acoustic snare.

 Head shot

Hitting the main surface of the pad produces a head shot

sound.

 Open rim shot

Hitting the open-rim zone produces an open rim-shot sound.

 Closed rim shot (Cross sticking)

Hitting the closed-rim zone produces a closed rim-shot

sound.

If using a two zone pad such as the RHH135 shown below, you

will be able to play it in the same way as an acoustic hi-hat cym-

bal.

 Open/close

In addition to the foot-close sound obtained by pressing the

Hi-Hat Controller pedal, you can press the controller down

even more firmly in the closed condition to produce a tighter

closed hi-hat sound.

 Bow shot

Hitting the main surface of the pad (i.e., the bow section

located between the cup and edge) produces a bow shot

sound.

 Edge shot

Hitting the outside edge of the pad produces an edge shot

sound.

 Hi-hat splash

Pressing the hi-hat controller pedal and then immediately

releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound.
