The level of the trigger signals output from the KP125W can be raised by turning the level adjuster q clockwise and vice-

versa. Be sure to adjust this level to best suit the strength with which you strike the pad, your desired dynamic range (i.e.,

the difference between loudest and quietest volumes), and the type of DTX Series tone generator module being used.

If playing fortissimo (ff) passages with the KP125W connected to a DTX Series tone generator module, the gain

level on the module’s trigger setup screen should be adjusted to between 90% and 95% of the displayed input

level. For more details, refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with the tone generator module. Excessively large

output levels can have unintended consequences such as a reduced dynamic range and double triggering

(where a single strike produces two distinct sounds).

No sound is produced or the volume is too low.

 Ensure that the KP125W is correctly connected to a DTX Series tone generator module using the stereo phone cable

provided. (See Making Connections.)

 Check the pad’s output level. If this level is too low, use the level adjuster to increase it. (See Adjusting the Output Level.)

Two or more sounds are produced in response to a single strike (i.e., double-triggering).

 Check the pad’s output level. If this level is too high, use the level adjuster to reduce it. Note that triggering of two or

more sounds occurs when the output level is excessively high due to the fact that the signal being input into the tone

generator module remains large for a relatively long period of time. (See Adjusting the Output Level.)

 Check the vertical position of the KP125W unit. If it has moved out of place, readjust the lengths of the legs to compen-

sate.

For more troubleshooting tips, refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with the DTX Series tone generator module.
