8.2 KIT – DRUM*
FILE↓/FOLD↑ Here you can assign a sound to a channel. The name of the sound is displayed in the
second row. The first row contains information about the folder (category of sounds).
Turn the DATA controller to browse the sounds. The FILE-number indicates the position
within the selected folder and is not part of the sound name.
If you press the rotary controller while holding the MORE button, the display switches to
FOLD ↑. Now you can navigate the folders with the rotary controller. Pressing it again
switches back to the FILE ↓ mode. Should a deleted sound be assigned to the channel,
a „?“ is displayed instead of the FILE number.
With the three DATA buttons you can trigger the currently selected sound. Each button
triggers a different zone, depending on the sound. With a cymbal sound, for example,
you can preview Bell, Bow, and Edge, with a kick sound, of course, only the sound of the
head.
TUNE TUNE changes the pitch of the sound. The lowest pitch is at -12 (12 semitones = one
octave down). The highest achievable tuning value. Usually it is about four half-steps up
(+4). But there are sounds that are can be changed more respectively less than 4 half-
steps up. If you press the rotary control while holding the MORE button, you switch to a
fine-tuning mode. Then you can adjust the pitch in decimal steps.
VOL With the rotary control you set the volume of the sound resp. the trigger channel.
Changing this parameter will automatically affect the VOL value on the KIT-page VOL
(see Section 9.4), which is identical with this here.
Please note that the volume of the channel set here affects both the volume in the mixer
and the volume in the selected BUS (see also page 63). I.e.: Increasing the volume of
this channel increases the volume of the single output (selected BUS) and the volume in
the corresponding mixer channel at the same time. This in turn affects the sum and/or
the headphone volume.
Selecting a Channel
To select a channel for editing, you can either hit the corresponding pad or select it using the
CHANNEL UP and CHANNEL DOWN buttons.
