WARNING
CAUTION
USING THE UNIT SAFELY
Used for instructions intended to alert the user to the risk of injury or material damage should the unit
be used improperly.
*Material damage refers to damage or other adverse effects caused with
respect to the home and all its furnishings, as well to domestic animals or pets.
Used for instructions intended to alert the user to the risk of death or severe injury should the unit be
used improperly.
Please read owner’s manual carefully before use.
Please connect the power plug with ground protected power outlet.
Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its AC adapter (except when this manual provides specific instructions directing
you to do so).
Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts within it (except when this manual provides specific instructions directing
you to do so).
Never use or store the unit in places that are:
a Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct, on top of heat-generating
equipment); or are
b Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors); or are
c Humid; or are
d Exposed to rain; or are
e Dusty; or are
f Subject to high levels of vibration
When using the unit with a rack or stand, the rack or stand must be carefully placed so it is level and sure to remain stable.
If not using a rack or stand, you still need to make sure that any location you choose for placing the unit provides a level surface
that will properly support the unit, and keep it from wobbling.
Be sure to use only the AC adapter supplied with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input
voltage specified on the AC adapter’s body. Other AC adapters may use a different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage,
so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, the supplied power cord must not be used with any other device.
Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor place heavy objects on it. It can damage the cord, producing severed
elements and short circuits. Damaged cords may cause fire and shock hazards!
Used for instructions intended to alert the user to the risk of death or severe injury should the unit be used improperly.
This unit, either alone or in combination with an amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels
that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long period of time at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience
any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an audiologist.
Do not allow any objects (e.g., flammable material, coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit.
Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC adapter from the outlet, as listed on the “Information” page when:
a The AC adapter, the power-supply cord, or the plug has been damaged; or
b If smoke or unusual odor occurs; or
c Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been spilled onto the unit; or
d The unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise has become wet); or
e The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.
In Households with small children, an adult should provide supervision until the child is capable of following all the rules essential
for the safe operation of the unit.
Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)

Power Supply
Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices.
Be especially careful when using extension cords-the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension
cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the
insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt trough.
The unit and the AC adapter should be located so their location or position does not interfere with their proper ventilation.
Always grasp only the plug on the AC adapter cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.
At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adapter and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and other
accumulations away from its prongs.
Also, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of
time. Any accumulation of dust between the power plug and the power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead to fire.
Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed so they are out
of reach of children.
Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the unit.
Never handle the AC adapter or its plugs with wet hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.
Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adapter and all cords coming from external devices.
Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the AC adapter from the outlet.
Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in your area, disconnect the AC adapter from the outlet.
Keep any caps you may remove and the included wing bolts in a safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no
chance of them being swallowed accidentally.
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor.
Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may
produce audible noise.
If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
The AC adapter will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to
speakers or other devices.
Placement
Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum.
To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.
This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit.
Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you
should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle,
or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit.
Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must
allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
For everyday cleaning, wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove
stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly
with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use benzene, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Maintenance

CAUTION
For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove
stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, nonabrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly
with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Important Notes
Please be aware that the unit’s memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit.
Please take care when using the unit’s buttons or other controls, and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can
lead to malfunctions.
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
When connecting/disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself-never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing
shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so
you do not need to be concerned about those around you.
Since sound vibrations can be transmitted through floors and walls to a greater degree than expected,
take care not to allow such sound to become a nuisance to neighbors, especially at night and when using headphones.
When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will
need to use equivalent packaging materials.
Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of
such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear.

You can adjust the sensitivity of the pads to accommodate your personal playing style.
This allows you to have more dynamic control over the sound volume, based on how hard
you play.
The larger value, the higher sensitivity.
When the sensitivity is high, even if the pad/cymbal is lightly hit,
a large volume will be generated. When the sensitivity is low,
even if the volume is strongly hit, the volume is small.

Parameter Value Description
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when
the pad is above a determined dynamic level (velocity). This
can be used to prevent a pad from sounding because of
vibrations from other pad.
In the following example, B will sound but A and C will not
sound.When set to a higher value, no sound is produced when the pad is struck lightly. The
response threshold is gradually increased as the pad is struck.
Check this setting and adjust as needed.Repeat this process until you get the perfect setting for
your playing style.
It is easy to maintain a powerful volume
effectwith very light strength response.These
settings will produce a reliable trigger if you
use a drum trigger as an external drum pad.
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received range between peak value with minimum value.
When set to higher value, it will be larger range for the trigger signal.

Time
(Note:You can also reduce the time by setting a hidden time setting.The hidden time does not
detect the trigger signal within a specified time after the previous trigger signal is received.Retrig
level detection trigger signal level attenuation,after internally determining the trigger signal
actually generated when hitting the pad,then the sound is triggered, and other false trigger
signals that do not require a triggering sound are excluded.)
When repeating the drum pad, raise the “Retrig Level” value until no further triggering occurs.
*Although raising this value prevents re-triggering, when playing fast (such as a roll), the sound
is likely to be missed. Adjust this value as low as possible while ensuring no re-triggering.
Important if you are using acoustic drum triggers. Such triggers can
produce altered waveforms, which may also cause inadvertent sounding
at Point A in the following figure(Re-trigger).
This setting prevents spurious re-triggering.
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform.The retrig
level detects such distortion and prevents repeated triggering.
Specifies the detection time of the trigger signal.
Due to the different characteristics of each pad or acoustic drum trigger,
the rise time of the trigger signal waveform may be slightly different, and
the same striking force may sound at different volumes. If this happens,
adjust the "scan time" and the performance can be monitored more
accurately.
Parameter Value
When repeatedly hitting the pad with the same strength, the scan time value is gradually
increased from "0" until the volume is stable at the maximum level.In this setting, Try to hit it
lightly and heavily, make sure the volume changes normally.
*The higher the value is set, the longer it takes to sound, so set this value as low as possible.
AutiCross 1-10
In some cases, you can prevent crosstalk by increasing the distance between the two pads.
Mask Time 0-64(ms)
This setting prevents double triggering.
When playing a trigger (specially kick trigger), the beater can bounce back and hit the head a
second time immediately after the intended note-with acoustic drums sometimes the beater
stays against the head-this causes a single hit to “double trigger” (two sounds instead of one).
The Mask Time setting helps to prevent this. Once a pad has been hit, any additional trigger
signals occurring within the specified “Mask Time” will be ignored(0-64ms).
When using a pad, try to let the beater bounce back and hit the head very quickly, then raise the
“Mask Time” value until there are no more sounds made by the beater rebound.
*
When set to high value, it will be difficult to play very quickly. Set this to as low a value as you can.
(Note: If two or more sounds are being produced when you strike the head just
once, then adjust Retrig Level.)
This setting cancels “crosstalk” (the sound of another drum pad is produced when playing a drum
pad). This happens when two drum pads are mounted on the same drum stand.

Same as "sensitivity", the higher the value, the higher the sensitivity of the rim/edge.
When the sensitivity is high, even if the tap is lightly hit, a large volume is generated.
When the sensitivity is low, even if the intensity is hit hard, the volume is small.
When you hit the drumhead hard, you may hear the drums. You can improve this by
reducing the value of the contrast. When you set this value too large, it may be difficult
to play a rim hit.
