11.3.2 ADVANCED SETTINGS
This is the second of the function sets containing trigger parameters. See the following sections for
explanations and best practice approaches of each parameter.
11.3.2.1 DYN LEVEL & DYN TIME
Dynamic Threshold level and Dynamic Threshold decay time for the input. Also, two very important
parameters. Raising both Dyn Level and Dyn Time will tell G9 to suppress false triggering harder
(crosstalk between inputs and double triggering). Raising them too high may cause the G9 to miss
some hits on fast/press rolls. Dyn Level sets how hard the G9 will try to suppress false triggering. Dyn
Time sets for how long false triggering will be suppressed. For most rubber type pads/cymbals Dyn
Level between 8 and 15 and Dyn Time between 8 and 20 should produce the best results. For mesh
type pads it may be necessary to raise Dyn Time above 20 and up to 60. The bigger the Mesh Head
diameter, the higher Dyn Time values are required.
GEWA Trigger Trays by design should produce best press rolls with Dyn Time values between 8 and
10.
Dyn Level parameter value range: 0-15
Dyn Time parameter value range: 0-60 ms
11.3.2.2 SPLASH SENSITIVITY (HI-HAT PEDAL ONLY)
Sets the number of milliseconds the G9 will wait before sending a slash note, when you execute a
splash. It can be set to any value above 0. If you set it to 0 you can only get Chicks (splash is off).
The higher the Splash Sensitivity the easier it is to get “splashes” but the longer are the delays for
their detection. If set it too high (15-30 milliseconds) you might begin noticing splash latency.
Splash Sensitivity parameter value range: 0-127
11.3.2.3 TRIGGER TYPE
The trigger type allows for communication with various types of pads of different manufacturers. The
options available vary with the selected component. Not all combinations are possible. In case of
“Single” settings for Rim/Edge and Bell will be ignored.
