DTX700 Owner’s Manual

Building Your Own Kit

With the DTX700, you can assign a different sound to each of

the connected pads. And once you have assembled all of the

sounds you wish to use, you can store them together. The fol-

lowing describes how to perform these operations.

[Definition] Instrument

In the context of the DTX700, the term “instru-

ment” is used to refer to each of the various per-

cussion instruments that make up a kit. Typical

examples would be snare drums, tom-toms,

cymbals, and kick drums.

1 Press the [KIT] button.

2 Turn the dial to choose the kit you wish to

edit.

3 Press the [INST] button.

4 Hit the pad that you wish to assign a new

sound to.

5 Turn the dial to select the sound you wish to

use.

NOTE

•You can use instrument categories and numbers to find

more information on different instruments in the Data

List booklet that came with your DTX700.

6 When you have found a sound you like, press

the [STORE] button.

If you do not wish to store your new setting, press the

[EXIT] button. The display will return to the previous page.

7 Press the dial to store your new setting.

NOTE

•Even if you have changed a kit’s sounds and stored your

new settings, you can perform kit initialization (page 28)

at any time to restore the original ones.
