Let’s Learn About Drums
Drum Set Elements
Here are some basic terms related to drum sets.
Bass drum/Kick Pedal
Played with a kick pedal, it’s the largest drum in the kit.
Snare drum
The snare drum is the main“voice” of a drum kit.
Hi-hat/Hi-hat pedal
An acoustic hi-hat uses 2 cymbals mounted on a hi-hat
stand. Pressing the hi-hat pedal opens and closes it.
* TD-02KV (example) uses a single pad.
Tom (Tom 1, Tom 2)
These are usually mounted above the bass drum.
Floor tom (Tom 3)
Sometimes called a bass tom. It either stands on its own legs
or is mounted on a stand.
Ride cymbal
The ride cymbal is principle elements in keeping time.
Usually mounted on the right side of the drum kit.
Crash cymbal
Smaller than the ride, the crash cymbal is mainly used for
accents.
* In the TD-02KV (example), this is the same size as the
ride.

Let’s Learn About Drums
Holding the sticks
The most common way to hold the sticks is called the
“matched grip” as shown in the illustrations below.
Left Right
Using the kick pedal
The kick pedal can be pressed in either of two ways:“heel
up” or “heel down”.
Heel up
In this method, your heel oats above the pedal. With your
heel o the pedal, lower your entire foot to push down the
pedal. This method applies the full weight of your leg to the
pedal, making it easier for you to produce a stronger sounds
than the heel down method. This is often used in rock and
pop.
Heel down
In this method, the entire bottom of your foot from heel to
toe stays in contact with the pedal. Use your ankle joint to
make your toes push down the pedal. This method allows
more precise control of the volume, and is often used in jazz
and bossa nova.
Using the snare
Head shot
Hit only the head of the pad. This is the most common
method to play the snare.
Rim shot (TD-02KV only)
Strike the head and the rim together. This will give you a
dierent sound (a rim tone) from head shots.
Rim
Cross-stick technique (TD-02KV only)
Only strike the rim of the pad.
The sound you hear when you strike the rim of the snare
changes depending on how hard you strike it. Strike the rim
softly for a cross stick sound, and strike the rim hard for a rim
shot sound.
Rim
Rim
ØWhen playing cross stick, set XStickSens (p. 14) to
anything other than“OFF”.
* To play the cross stick, be sure that you only strike the rim
of the pad. If you’re resting your hand on the head, cross
stick playing technique might not be possible.
* This is eective only for a pad that is connected to the
“SN” connector of the dedicated connection cable.
The Basics of Playing
Drums are played using both hands and both feet.
Here we explain how to hold the sticks, strike the drums, and use the pedal.

44
Let’s Learn About Drums
Using the cymbals
Bow shot
The most common method, playing the middle area of the
cymbal.
Edge shot
This playing method involves striking the edge with the
shoulder of the stick. (Hit the edge sensor position as shown
in the illustration.)
Edge sensor
* Bow shots and edge shots can also be played on the
hi-hat.
Bell Shot (ride only)
This playing method involves striking the bell of the cymbal.
* Use a pad that supports the ride three-way trigger.
* Set the CR2Usage setting (p. 15) to “RDB”.
* Strike the bell somewhat strongly with the shoulder of
the stick.
Shoulder
Choking a cymbal
Choking (pinching) the cymbal’s edge with the hand
immediately after hitting the cymbal will mute or choke the
sound, just like with a real cymbal.
* The Choke function only works when you grasp in
the area (where the edge sensor is) as shown in the
illustration. If you do otherwise, it will not work.
Edge sensor
Using the hi-hat
In an acoustic drum set, the hi-hat consists of two cymbals
placed facing each other vertically on a hi-hat stand.
When you press the pedal, the two cymbals will come
together (closed). When you release the pedal, the two
cymbals will separate (opened).
Closed
With the hi-hat pedal pressed rmly, strike the pad with a
stick. A short “chick” sound will be heard.
Half-open
With the hi-hat pedal pressed gently, strike the pad with a
stick. A slightly longer “swish”sound will be heard.
Open
With the hi-hat pedal completely released, strike the pad
with a stick. An even longer “sound”than the half-open
sound will be heard.
Foot closed
Just press the pedal without using a stick. This sound will be
softer and shorter than the closed sound played with a stick.
Useful for keeping time with this tight sound.
Foot splash
Press and immediately release the pedal without using a
stick. This is equivalent to momentarily clashing the two
cymbals of an acoustic hi-hat. It produces a “splash”sound
that is softer than the open strike.

Parameter Value Explanation
Type Ø“PAD Type list” (p. 15)
Specify the pad type. You’ll need to make these settings if you expand the pads of your drum set or if you
connect pads of a dierent type.
* When you specify the PAD type, the parameters such as Threshold, ADVANCED (with the exception
of certain parameters such as XtlkCancel) are set to optimal values. These values are only general
guidelines; you can make ne adjustments as appropriate according to how you attach the pad and how
you use it.
Sens 1–32
Adjusts the balance (sensitivity) between pad striking strength and volume. Increasing this value increases
the sensitivity, so that even soft strikes on the pad are sounded at high volume. Decreasing this value
decreases the sensitivity, so that even strong strikes on the pad play softly.
Threshold 0–31
Adjusts the minimum sensitivity of the pad. This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when
the pad is above a determined force level (threshold). This can be used to prevent a pad from sounding
because of vibrations from other pads.
Check this by gradually increasing the value while playing the pad. If a soft strike on the pad fails to make a
sound, slightly lower this value. Repeat this to obtain the ideal setting.
XStickSens OFF, 1–10
Species the strength of the strike at which the cross-stick sound and the rim shot sound are switched.
Increasing this value causes the cross-stick sound to be heard even for a softer rim shot.
If this is “OFF”, the rim shot sound is heard even when you play a cross-stick strike.
* The cross-stick technique can only be used on pads that support rim shots.

RimGain *1 0–3.2
Adjusts the balance between the force of striking the rim or edge and the loudness of the sound.
If you increase this value, even soft strikes on the rim play at high volume. If you decrease this value,
even strong strikes on the rim play at low volume.
H/R Adjust

This setting species how easy it is to play a head shot or rim shot.
If the rim sound is heard when you play a head shot, increase this value.
If the head sound is heard when you play a rim shot, decrease this value.
MEMO
If the rim shot sound is heard when you play a head shot, or if a head shot sound is heard when
you play a rim shot, make small changes to the H/R Adjust values while you continue trying out
the results.
Extreme changes to the values will cause the wrong sound to be heard when you strike the pad,
for example producing the rim shot sound when you play a head shot.

Parameter Value Explanation
Retrg Cancel 1–16
Detecting trigger signal attenuation (Retrigger Cancel)
When you strike a snare drum etc. to which a commercially available
drum trigger is attached, there might be cases in which the waveform
is misshapen, causing another trigger to unintendedly occur at point
“A” in the following illustration (retriggering).
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform.
Retrigger Cancel detects such distortion and prevents retriggering
from occurring.
While repeatedly striking the pad, raise the“Retrigger Cancel”value until retriggering no longer
occurs.
Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be
omitted when the pad is repeatedly struck quickly. Set this to the lowest value possible while still
ensuring that there is no retriggering.
MEMO
You can also eliminate this problem of retriggering with the Mask Time setting. Mask Time does
not detect trigger signals if they occur within the specied amount of time after the previous
trigger signal was received. Retrigger Cancel detects the decay of the trigger signal level, and
triggers the sound after internally determining which trigger signals were actually generated
when the head was struck, while weeding out the other false trigger signals that should not
trigger a sound.
XtlkCancel 0–80
If more than one pad (or acoustic drum to which a drum trigger is attached) is mounted on the same
stand, you can use this setting to prevent the vibrations caused by striking a pad from producing
unintentional triggering (crosstalk) for a dierent pad (or drum trigger). For example, if pad B
unintendedly sounds when you strike pad A, increase the XtlkCancel value of pad B until crosstalk no
longer occurs. If this value is raised excessively, the sound of pad B will tend to drop out when pad A
and pad B are struck simultaneously.
ScanTime 0–4.0 ms
Trigger signal detection time (Scan Time)
Since the rise time of the trigger signal waveform may dier slightly
depending on the characteristics of each pad or acoustic drum trigger
(drum pickup), you may notice that identical hits (velocity) may produce
sound at dierent volumes. If this occurs, you can adjust the “Scan Time”
so that your way of playing can be detected more precisely.
While repeatedly hitting the pad at a constant force, gradually raise the Scan Time value from 0 msec,
until the resulting volume stabilizes at the loudest level. At this setting, try both soft and loud strikes,
and make sure that the volume changes appropriately.
* As the value is set higher, the time it takes for the sound to be played increases. Set this to as low
as possible.
MaskTime 0–64 ms
Double triggering prevention (Mask Time)
When playing a 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 is hit, any additional trigger signals occurring within the
specied Mask Time are ignored.
Adjust the Mask Time value while playing the pad.
When using a kick trigger, 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.
Increasing this value makes it more likely that a note played in rapid succession will drop out. Set this
to as low a value as possible.
MEMO
If two or more sounds are being produced when you strike the head just once, adjust Retrigger
Cancel.
